The infection route and the results of the virus neutralization test (VNT), the ID.vet Capripox DA ELISA test (S/P%), and the new competitive and indirect ELISAs based on monoclonal antibodies are reported. The positive results are highlighted with the symbol, according to the cutoff value established for each test.
