Mono- and polyclonal antibodies are used for this AgriStrip assay. This AgriStrip assay reacts specifically with PVM. No cross-reaction is observed with other potato viruses, such as PVA, PVS, PVX, PVY, and PLRV. Strongest coloration of testbands is obtained with an 1:60 (w/v) dilution of an extract of infected potato leaves.
Instructions for use
