Patent Number: 6476192
Docket Number: 22895
Serial Number: 8624677
Date Patented: 11/05/2002
Agency:
Agricultural Research Service,
Date Filed:

Abstract:
The invention involves the diagnosis of Neospora parasite infection. This infection
results in neosporosis, a disease causing paralysis and death in dogs and abortion, morbidity and
mortality in cattle, sheep, goats and horses. The antibody test results in increased sensitivity and
specificity and fewer false positives in diagnosis of the disease.
