RESUMO
The correlation of a modified counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIE) test and a microimmunodiffusion test for detecting pseudorabies virus antibodies in porcine sera was investigated, using as reference a standard virus neutralization test. The counterimmunoelectrophoresis test exhibited a sensitivity comparable to the microimmunodiffusion test but was not as sensitive as the virus neutralization test. The best feature of the modified counterimmunoelectrophoresis test is that it is a rapid test. It provides an alternative to currently used diagnostic tests for detection of pseudorabies virus antibodies in sera from field reared and experimentally reared swine exposed to pseudorabies virus.
