This Feline Calicivirus IgG Antibody ELISA Kit is based on an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect Calicivirus specific antibodies in feline serum and plasma, moreover, it can be used in the supervision of FCV vaccine antibody levels in cats.
Feline calicivirus is a virus that is an important cause of upper respiratory infections and oral disease in cats. This virus infects cats throughout the world and can cause disease in both domestic and exotic cat species. Although several different viruses and bacteria can cause respiratory disease in cats, calicivirus is one of the more common infectious agents isolated in cats with a respiratory infection. Information about some other infectious agents that can cause an upper respiratory infection in cats can be found in "Feline Upper Respiratory Infection".
