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 felid 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 dispositif permettant de détecter une infection par le virus de l'immunodéficience féline ou une vaccination contre celui-ci chez un animal. Ledit procédé consiste à mettre en contact un échantillon biologique de félidé avec des polypeptides FIV variés, et à déterminer la liaison d'anticorps dans l'échantillon avec lesdits polypeptides. On peut déterminer si un animal est infecté par FIV ou a été vacciné contre FIV par mesure de la réponse immunitaire de l'animal à un polypeptide env FIV. L'invention concerne également un dispositif permettant de détecter des anticorps contre FIV.
