Hello,1-Coat ur ELISA plate with standard BHV-1 antigen .2-at the same time preincubate at 37C your virus with your Ab.3-add this mixture to the coated ELISA plate.4-use a secondary antiIgG-HRP.5-develop and read

Bye

If you have Ab against the virus, you can use a sandwich assay by adsorbing Ab to the oplate...adding virus containing solution, then adding enz labeled Ab ..then the enzyme substrate ..the amt of color is directly proportional to the virus conc...you can conjugate Ab to Alk phosphatase or peroxidase by using EDAC or other water soluble  carbodiimides
