Abstract
This paper provides the first (as is known from the literature analysis) results of the use of specific egg yolk IgY from immunized hens to prepare immune reagents to tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). The IgY preparations are shown to possess a high specific activity in ELISA and can be used as reference reagents, and also for the construction of ELISA systems to detect TBEV antigen.
