FCV Antibody (S1-9) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects the FCV protein of FCV origin by immunofluorescence (IF) and immunohistochemistry. Anti-FCV antibody (S1-9) is available as a non-conjugated format, making FCV (S1-9) antibody a versatile tool for researchers studying feline calicivirus (FCV), a member of the Caliciviridae family known for causing respiratory infections in cats. FCV is an RNA virus that exhibits varying degrees of virulence, with a particularly aggressive strain known as virulent systemic feline calicivirus (VS-FCV) or FCV-associated virulent systemic disease (VSD). VS-FCV is notable for invading the epithelium and endothelium of the host, leading to severe acute symptoms such as fever, conjunctivitis, nasal discharge, sneezing, oral ulceration, and polyarthritis. Understanding the structure of the FCV protein is crucial, as FCV plays a significant role in viral attachment to and penetration of host cells, facilitating infection and disease progression. The protein′s structural features, including capsid proteins, are essential for viral stability and infectivity, making FCV a key target for therapeutic interventions and vaccine development. FCV shares similarities with Norovirus, a common cause of gastroenteritis in humans, which allows for cross-application in research settings. FCV serves as a valuable model for studying the Caliciviridae family due to its capacity for in vitro growth, providing insights into viral behavior and potential treatment strategies.
