Use of serological diagnostic techniques in the control and eradication of caprine arthritis encephalitis: an update

Abstract: Caprine arthritis encephalitis (CAE) is a chronic disease caused by a small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV), which causes significant losses in goat breeding. The actual state of animal infection with SRLV is difficult to determine due to a complex pathogenesis of the virus, including factors such as delayed or intermittent seroconversion in serological tests. Several serological techniques are available for disease diagnosis, such as screening or confirmation tests, which are different in sensitivity and specifici… Show more

“…PCR is sensitive to monitor and point out amino acids changes within target sequences, but as SRLVs are responsible for persistent infections, the antibody screening is the most valuable tool to identify infected animals. As recommended by the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), ELISA is the most widely used test in the CAEV control programs all over the world (Reina et al, 2009;Mussi et al, 2015), due to its high sensitivity and ability to detect low antibody titers earlier than AGID (Lara et al, 2003).…”
