This Rabies Antibody IgG ELISA Kit is based on an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect rabies antibodies in canine or feline serum and plasma, moreover, it can be used in the supervision of rabies vaccine antibody levels in dogs and cats.
Rabies is a deadly virus spread to people from the saliva of infected animals. The rabies virus is usually transmitted through a bite. Rabies is a vaccine-preventable viral disease that occurs in more than 150 countries and territories. Dogs are the main source of human rabies deaths, contributing up to 99% of all rabies transmissions to humans. Interrupting transmission is feasible through vaccination of dogs and prevention of dog bites. According to CDC website, 0.5IU/mL is the minimum adequant level of serum antibody to protect cats or dogs from rabies infection. In order to make sure the rabies specific IgG level is over 0.5IU/mL, routine testing is always needed.
