ELISA Methods Based on Monoclonal Antibodies for the Serological Diagnosis of Lumpy Skin Disease

Figure 3

Seroconversion detected in cattle sera collected at different time points after experimental infection with three LSDV strains. Six cattle were infected with the vaccine strain Neethling, eight with a 2016 isolate from North Macedonia, and four with a 2019 isolate from Nigeria. Sera were tested in competitive ELISA (a) and indirect ELISA (b). On the x-axis, dpi are shown, while on the y-axis the percentage of inhibition (a) and the optical density (OD) value (b) are reported. The dashed line indicates the cutoff value for both analyses.
