| Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) is the most closely related lentivirus to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), therefore, SIV infection in monkeys has become the best animal model for studying the pathogenesis of and efficacy of vaccines against HIV infection in humans. (1-7,10-12) The ZeptoMetrix Western Blot Assay is a qualitative enzyme immunoassay for the in vitro detection of antibodies to SIV in serum or plasma. It is supplied for research purposes only. It is not intended for use in the diagnosis or prognosis of disease, or for screening and may not be used as a confirmatory test in diagnostic situations. To avoid microbial contamination store kit reagents tightly capped and at 2-8 C when not in use. Do not use kit beyond its expiration date. Use reagent grade water for diluting kit reagents. Reusing trays is not recommended. Keep all reagents tightly capped and refrigerated when not in use. Allow strips to reach room temperature before opening tube. Close tube immediately after removing strips for use. Allow reagents to reach room temperature before use. Do not touch strips with fingers. Use forceps when removing strips from tube.
