| i think the answer to your question is yes elisa clears have been shown to be unreliable when the offspring were tested thru dna by vet gen. this happened when the dna test started to be used and breeders found out some of their dogs who had been declared clear by elisa actually weren't clear genetically. the elisa test is only a snapshot in time of the clotting factor at the moment the blood is drawn, it has uses, but it doesn't tell you the genetic status of the dog. |
