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 of 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.
La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de déterminer l'infection ou la vaccination par le virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF). Le procédé consiste à prélever chez un félidé un échantillon biologique et à le mettre en contact avec divers polypeptides du VIF, et à déterminer la liaison d'anticorps dans l'échantillon des polypeptides. Pour savoir si un animal est infecté par VIF ou a été vacciné contre le VIF, il suffit de mesurer la réponse immunitaire par rapport à un polypeptide env du VIF. L'invention concerne également un dispositif de détection des anticorps VIF.
