Typing of FMDV in epithelial tissue and vesicular fluid (lesion samples) from suspected infected calves was performed by Sandwich ELISA developed by ICAR-DFMD, Mukteshwar, India. A 10% (W/V) antigen suspension of epithelial tissue was prepared in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Briefly, tissue samples were triturated with PBS, and the suspension was mixed with an equal volume of chloroform. After centrifugation at 1000 g for 15 min, the supernatant was collected as antigen and stored at −20 °C for further use. Vesicular fluid was directly used as an antigen for the detection of FMDV.

Type-specific anti-146S FMDV sera raised in rabbits and guinea pigs were used as coating and tracing sera respectively as per the recommendation of ICAR-DFMD, Mukteshwar, India. Rabbit anti-guinea pig IgG-HRP conjugate was used in the assay.
