ABSTRACT:
Hybrid cell lines which secret monoclonal antibody which is group-specific to bluetongue virus (BTV) antigen and which does not react to antigenically related epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus antigen are disclosed. The antibodies identify BTV in infected cell cultures with immunofluorescence and provide a means for ready diagnosis of BTV in animals.
