One of the things no one has mentioned here is that if the kit had
just been
vaccinated recently, that sometimes the test comes back positive
and its not
really positive, because its the vaccine that caused it to show
positive. I
remember back when Judy (White Russian's mom first started testing
ferrets
that this topic was brought up by some of the people back east
that had been
testing their ferrets.) You should wait to test for ADV if you
have just
recently vaccinated your ferrets.


That depends on the test that was used. To my knowledge,
vaccination does not interfere with the ELISA test run by Avecon.
