Additionally, she presented two posters: “Adaptation of CIVTEST® CANIS LEISHMANIA to an automated ELISA” and “Detection of buffaloes infected with the HoBi-like virus using a BVDp80 blocking ELISA kit”.
For her part, Mercè Domènech, Corporate Product Manager, presented the study entitled “Validation of the new CIVTEST® BOVIS IBRgB” which demonstrated the high level of sensitivity of the kit, and the corporate communication which revealed the latest innovations in kits, including the new CIVTEST® BOVIS IBRgB (Detection of specific antibodies against glycoprotein B (gB) of bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BoHV-1), by blocking ELISA) and the CIVTEST® RUMI CHLAMYDIA.
