Prevalence of equine herpesvirus 2 (EHV-2) in equine ocular disease [PDF]
Equine gammaherpesvirus 2 (EHV-2) has been linked to keratitis and keratoconjunctivitis but has also been isolated in horses showing no signs of disease. The aim of the current study was to assess the importance of EHV-2 infection in the aetiopathogenesis of ocular disease, where the applied treatment failed.

The Use of a Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibody to Detect Infections of Equine Herpesvirus Type 2 (EHV-2) [PDF]
A blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect antibodies to equine herpesvirus 2 in serum samples of horses. By measuring the binding to a single epitope, this blocking ELISA gives a good picture of the antibody status in the animal.
