When foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) occurs and a “vaccination-to-live” policy is adopted in a country, the country must perform serological surveillance of a nonstructural protein (NSP) of FMD virus. The NCPanaftosa kit is the only kit for detecting antibodies to NSPs that is officially recognized as...
