The Kernel Fowl Adenovirus Group I (FADV-1) Antibody Test Kit is designed for the detection of chicken antibodies specific to Fowl Adenovirus Group I (FADV-1) in chicken serum/plasma. Fowl Adenovirus Group I (FADV-1) are conventional adenoviruses, share a common group antigen.These viruses grow readily in avian cell cultures and have been isolated from chickens, turkeys, geese, ducks, quail, pigeons, ostriches and other avian species. FADV-1 have been associated with a range of conditions such as respiratory disease, diarrhea, reduced egg production, detrimental effects on feed conversion and arthritis. An assessment of immune status, as well as serologic identification of FADV-1, requires a measurement of antibody to FADV-1 in serum.
