Figure 5From: Validation of an automated ELISA system for detection of antibodies to Aleutian mink disease virus using blood samples collected in filter paper stripsPhotograph of the filter paper blood comb. The blood comb is used for the blood sampling of mink in the automated AMDV-VP2 ELISA system. Twelve mink can be sampled with one comb. Except for the tips, the combs are coated with a thin film to prevent the comb absorbing dilution buffer. On the upper part of the comb, there is room for farm identification, date, and serial number.Back to article page
