The first application results of enzyme immunoassay system (ELISA) - binding inhibition ELISA (BI ELISA) for the detection of antibodies to polioviruses of three types based on the use of specific antibodies from chicken yolk (IgY) are presented. This variant of ELISA is a "surrogate" neutralization test (NT). When comparing the results of the detection of antibodies in 90 sera of children who were vaccinated with oral and inactivated poliovirus vaccines, good correlation (r = 0.67, 0.61, 0.76 for types 1, 2, 3 respectively) between the BI ELISA and the NT results was shown. The presented variant of ELISA is the further stage of the development of "IgY-technology" for laboratory diagnostics of viral infections, namely poliovirus infection, which can be used for seroepidemiological studies as an analogue of the NT which requires the use of life poliovirus with the required standard of biosafety containment facilities.

Antibody Structure
Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins (Ig), are essential players of the adaptive immune system. These antigen-binding proteins are produced by B cells and make up 20 percent of the total blood plasma by weight. In mammals, antibodies fall into five different classes, which each elicits a different biological response upon antigen binding.
