Method for the detection and classification of PRRSV-infections in swine herds, comprising a) the incubation of tissue samples taken from the animals with at least one antigen capable to bind a neutralizing antibody against the Type I-virus possibly present in the animal and with at least one antigen capable to bind a neutralizing antibody against the Type II-virus possibly present in the animal, b) testing whether a binding of antibodies against the Type I-virus and/or the Type II-virus has taken place and c) determining from the presence of possible epitope-antibody complexes whether an infection of the PRRSV I-Type and/or PRRSV II-Type is present in the herd and diagnostic compositions for such a method.

Method for the detection and classification of PRRSV-infections in swine herds and diagnostic antigen compositions for such methods

Method for the determination ofinfections in an animal or a human, comprising the incubation withantigens of a tissue sample taken from the animal or the human, the processing of the tissue sample, the addition of anti-antibodies to the tissue sample, and the verification of whether binding of the anti-antibodies to any antigen/antibody complexes present in the tissue sample has taken place, where the anti-antibodies added are anti-IgG antibodies and simultaneously anti-IgM antibodies.
