Detection of anti-GM6 antibodies from experimentally infected horse sera. Three Welsh pony mares, H5, H8 and H11, were infected with T. equiperdum OVI and monitored up to 57 days post infection by blood sampling at day 0 and then every 2–4 days. Serological titres (red line) were determined previously. ΔFluorescence Intensities were obtained with GM6-coupled microspheres in a microsphere‐based immunoassay and are shown by the black line. Dotted lines represent positive cut-offs for serological titres (red) and the GM6 assay (black). An asterisk indicates the end point of the experimental infection protocol.
