7-10 days.
Specimen
2.0 serum in non‑additive tube (do NOT use serum separator tube) OR 2.0 mL CSF in non‑additive tube (do NOT use anti‑coagulant).
Test Description
This test is used to identify intrathecal production of antibody to S. neurona and Neospora hughesi as an indication of active disease within the CNS. This is more accurate for disease than serum testing alone that is only used for exposure.
Interferences: Hemolysis may interfere with testing.
