    Snippet: The sample population (84 positive and 101 negative) consisted of serum and plasma samples submitted to IDEXX's worldwide Reference Laboratory for feline retrovirus testing. Virus isolation and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction results were not available and so samples were judged to be positive or negative based on the results of the ViraCHEKÃ’ FeLV (Zoetis) microtiter plate assay.

    Document: The sample population (84 positive and 101 negative) consisted of serum and plasma samples submitted to IDEXX's worldwide Reference Laboratory for feline retrovirus testing. Virus isolation and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction results were not available and so samples were judged to be positive or negative based on the results of the ViraCHEKÃ’ FeLV (Zoetis) microtiter plate assay. ViraCHEKÃ’ was used as the reference test because it was reported in a published study to have high sensitivity and specificity (Hartmann et al. 2007 ) and it detects the same FeLV antigen as does each of the in-clinic tests evaluated in this study.
