Detection of Antigenic Heterogeneity in Feline Coronavirus Nucleocapsid in Feline Pyogranulomatous Meningoencephalitis [PDF]
Veterinary Pathology, 2008 A new monoclonal antibody (mAb), CCV2-2, was compared with the widely used FIPV3-70 mAb, both directed against canine coronavirus (CCoV), as a diagnostic and research tool. Western blot showed that both anti-CCoV mAbs only reacted with a protein of 50 kD, a weight consistent with the feline coronavirus (FCoV) viral nucleocapsid.
