The Streptococcus equi subsp. equi SeM protein ELISA test assesses the IgG endpoint titer against the highly immunogenic S. equi specific M protein. It is helpful for making vaccination decisions on horses with existing titers, identifying horses at risk of complications due to elevated titers, or for horses with aberrant abscesses (bastard strangles). The SeM protein ELISA should not be used to determine the infection status of horses with clinical signs of strangles.
