Abstract
The method of diagnosis of Mystery Swine Disease (MSD) is carried out with polyclonal or monoclonal antibody sera. Either the antibody sera or the biopsied tissue homogenate may be immobilized by contact by contact with a polystyrene surface or with a surface of another polymer for immobilizing protein. Preferably the monoclonal antibody is produced by a murine derived hybrid cell line wherein the antibody is an IgG or IgM type immunoglobulin. Example monoclonal antibodies to the infectious agent for SIRS are monoclonal antibody SDOW 12 and SDOW 17.
