Characterization of monoclonal antibodies against avian reovirus S1133 protein sigmaA synthesized in Escherichia coli.

Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were prepared against avian reovirus S1133 protein sigmaA (esigmaA) synthesized in Escherichia coli. MAbs were characterized and used to develop a diagnostic test. Ten MAbs were selected for competitive binding assay following coupling with horseradish peroxidase.
