[Development of the immunoenzyme test-system for detection of Ebola virus antigen]

An enzyme immunoassay system has been developed for the detection of Ebola virus antigen. It permits a highly accurate and sensitive rapid detection of the antigen. Optimal dilutions of specific immunoglobulin (1:500, corresponding to protein concentration of 50 micrograms/ml) and conjugate were found. The resolving capacity of the new test system is 1.9 x 10(-7) g protein.
