“…Its relative ease of use will also support high throughput, lending itself to studies on the role of neutralizing antibodies in protecting from further CCHFV in survivors, for example. In this context, it will be an invaluable new tool in studying specific antibody responses induced by the many novel CCHFV vaccine candidates currently undergoing research and development (5,24,25). It is known that CCHFV infects various wild and domestic animals, such as cattle, sheep, goats, buffalo, hares, squirrels, mice, rats, and hedgehogs (26)(27)(28)(29).…”
