Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection of antibodies to infectious bronchitis virus.

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for antibodies to avian infectious bronchitis (IB) virus is described. The immune response of chickens following vaccination with IB virus was monitored using this test, and the titers were compared with those obtained by serum neutralization. The ELISA appears to be suitable for IB serology.
