Abstract

Measles is a prevalent and potencially sever disease in developing countries. The two methods widely used for diagnosis are ELISA and lHA. We studied different multiplicities of infections (m.o.i) to determine the ideal moi for the preparation of antigens for these assays. We conclude that the use of low (m.o.i.ü.O 1) viral titers are most useful for both the ELISA and lHA methods. The different preparation of antigens for these assays do not seems to influence their usage.
