Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Conjugate control (Cc) Wells 1A and 1B are a blank control consisting of BTV antigen and conjugate. This may be used to blank the ELISA reader.
Mab control (Cm) Columns 1 and 2, rows G and H are the monoclonal antibody control and contain BTV antigen, monoclonal antibody and conjugate. These wells represent maximum colour. The mean of the optical density readings from this control represents the 0 % inhibition value.
Positive control (C++, C+) Columns 1 and 2, rows C-D-E-F. These wells contain BTV antigen, BTV strong and weak positive antiserum respectively, Mab and conjugate.
Negative control (C-) Wells 2A and 2B are the negative controls, which contain BTV antigen, BTV negative antiserum, Mab and conjugate.
Test sera For large-scale serological surveys and rapid screening, sera may be tested at a single dilution of 1:5 (Appendix 1). Alternatively, 10 sera may be tested over a dilution range from 1:5 to 1:640 (Appendix 2). This will give some indication of the titre of antibody in the test sera.
