This antibody can be used in ELISA (1:500 dilution), Western blot (1:500 dilution), and indirect immunofluorescence (1:250). It recognizes 23 kDa protein corresponding to ISAV matrix protein. ISAV is an enveloped virus that belongs to the family Orthomyxoviridae and genus Isavirus. Its genoma comprises eight negative-sense, single-stranded RNA segments and encodes four major structural proteins including the matrix, the nucleoprotein, and two membrane glycoproteins (hemagglutinin-esterase and gp50). ISAV infects mainly endothelial cells and leukocytes and causes a multi systemic disease characterized by high mortality with exophthalmia, pale gills, ascites, hemorrhagic liver necrosis, and renal interstitial hemorrhage.
