A method and device for determining a feline immunodeficiency virus infection or vaccination in an animal. The method includes contacting a biological sample from a field with various FIV polypeptides and determining the binding of antibodies in the sample to the polypeptides. The determination of whether an animal is infected with FIV or has been vaccinated against FIV can be determined by measuring the animal~s immune response to an FIV env polypeptide. A device for detecting FIV antibodies is provided.
L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil servant à détecter l'infection par le virus de l'immunodéficience féline ou la vaccination contre celui-ci chez un animal. Le procédé comprend de mettre en contact un échantillon biologique provenant d'un félidé avec différents polypeptides du VIF et de détecter la formation de liaisons entre des anticorps présents dans l'échantillon et les polypeptides. On peut déterminer si un animal est infecté par le VIF ou a été vacciné contre le VIF en mesurant la réponse immunitaire de l'animal à un polypeptide env du VIF. L'invention concerne également un appareil servant à détecter les anticorps de VIF.
