ABSTRACT:
The invention provides methods, devices, and kits for the detection of a class of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus, or PRRSV, in a biological fluid. The invention is based in part on an agent which binds the nucleocapsid (N) protein of PRRSV. The agent may be an antibody that binds the N protein with specificity. Compositions and devices comprising the binding agent, as well as methods of using it are also provided. Also provided are methods of preparing devices and kits for the practice of the methods.
