P.  aEvaluation of agar gel immunodiffusion serology using caprine and ovine lentiviral antigens for detection of antibody to caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus.h[electronic resource]  c1994  aThe sensity of the agar gel immunidifussion (AGID) test for the detection of antibody to caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) was investigated with CAEV or ovine progressive pneumonia virus (OPPV) as the source of antigen. A total of 218 goat serum specimens were tested for anti-CAEV antibody by AGID and immunoprecipitation of [35S]methionine-labeled CAEV. In comparison with that of immuniprecipitation, the sensitivity of the CAEV AGID test was 0.91, and that of the OPPV AGID test 0.56. The AGID test with either antigen was 100% specific. The lower sensitivity of the OPPV AGID test in detecting caprine antibody to CAEV indicates that OPPV antigens is of limited value for use in CAEV diagnosis and control programs.  aCaprine arthritis encephalitis virus  aDisease diagnosis  aGoat diseases  aGoats  aImmunodiffusion tests  aImmunology  aLentivirus  aAntibodies viral  aAntigenos  aAvaliacao  aEvaluation Studies as Topic  aSensitivity and specificity  aSorologia1 aEVERMANN, J.
