I have never had much of a difference show up in the tests
done by the U of GA on samples from my ferrets. They are
doing the CIEP with titers, and the titers remain constant or
continue to rise. With ELISA testing, though, I have seen
antibody drops, sometimes in ferrets with high titer levels
with the CIEP.
