A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cELISA) was developed to detect antibodies to the group antigen of bluetongue virus (BTV). The epitope recognized by the BTV-specific monoclonal antibody was confirmed, by immunofluorescence staining of monolayers of virus-infected Vero cells, to be present on BTV serotypes 2, 10, 11, 13, and 17 but not on epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) serotypes 1 and 2. Sera from BTV-inoculated ruminants and rabbits were used to evaluate the cELISA and to compare its specificity and sensitivity with that of the conventional BTV-specific agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) and serum neutralization (SN) tests. Rabbit antisera to the 5 serotypes of BTV present in the United States had cELISA titers (inverse of the final dilution of serum that gave greater than 20% inhibition) that ranged from 32 to greater than 1.024. Seroconversion of the 8 calves and lambs inoculated with BTV was detected by all 3 serologic tests (SN, AGID, cELISA) by 6 weeks after inoculation. Specificity of the cELISA test was confirmed with bovine sera that contained neutralizing antibodies to EHDV but not to the 5 serotypes of BTV present in the United States; these sera gave positive results by AGID test but were negative by cELISA. The sensitivity and specificity of the cELISA test was further confirmed by analysis of a panel of bovine test sera supplied by the National Veterinary Services Laboratories, indicating that the cELISA is a superior test for detection of BTV group-specific antibodies in sera from ruminants in the United States. 相似文献

Following isolation of a virus (CSIRO19) from insects in Australia and its identification as bluetongue virus serotype 20 (BTV20), a nationwide survey of antibodies in cattle and sheep sera was undertaken. Initial studies using the serum neutralization (SN) test showed that the distribution of BTV20 antibodies in cattle was confined to the northern part of Australia. Group-reactive antibody tests (agar gel diffusion precipitin, AGDP, and complement-fixation, CF) showed group-reactive cattle sera south of the BTV20 zone (northern Australia), and southwards from Queensland to New South Wales. Very few group-reactive sheep sera (45 out of 16213) were found and these were of doubtful epidemiological significance. Some of these BTV group-reactive, BTV20-negative, sera were tested in SN tests against BTV1 to 17 and Ibaraki (IBA) virus. The results indicated that BTV1, or a closely related orbivirus, was active in cattle in Queensland, northern Western Australia, and New South Wales, and that antibody to BTV15 was present in some of the cattle sera in northern Western Australia and the Northern Territory. Antibody to IBA virus was present in some cattle sera in Queensland, northern Western Australia and New South Wales. SN antibody titres ?60 were also found to a number of other BTV serotypes in cattle sera in northern Western Australia and Queensland (principally, BTV2 and BTV7). Low level reactions were commonly observed against these and a number of other BTV serotypes, often in the same serum samples. Further, 22% of the group-reactive cattle sera did not react with any of the viruses in the SN tests. Such results were difficult to interpret in terms of known Australian BTV or BTV-related isolates. 相似文献

The avidin-biotin complex immunoperoxidase technique was adapted for use in detecting bluetongue virus (BTV) antigens in BTV serotype 11-infected bovine fetuses. Fetuses were infected with BTV serotype 11 at 120 days of gestation and then removed 20 days later by Cesarean section. Blood and tissue samples were collected from each animal and used for virus isolation in embryonated chicken eggs, the immunofluorescent antibody test, and the avidin-biotin complex test. The avidin-biotin complex method successfully identified BTV antigens in both fresh and autolyzed fetal brains. Thus, the avidin-biotin complex immunoperoxidase method has potential as a possible procedure for diagnosing bluetongue disease in aborted bovine fetuses. 相似文献

The performance of 2 competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (C-ELISA) was compared with the reference C-ELISA I for the detection of antibodies to bluetongue virus (BTV). One of the assays (C-ELISA II) used a group-specific monoclonal antibody (MAb) to BTV, obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (8A3B-6) and tissue culture (TC)-derived BTV antigen (Ag), and the other assay (C-ELISA III) used BTV core protein VP7 (expressed in yeast) and the reference MAb (Pirbright Laboratory, 3-17-A3). Test sera were obtained by sequential blood samples from 22 calves, each inoculated with a different serotype (T) of BTV (South African [SA] T-1-T-16 and T-18-T-20 and USA T-11, T-13, and T-17). Sera were also obtained from 4 calves and 4 sheep inoculated with USA BTV T-10 and from several groups of calves exposed to single or multiple doses of epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) T-1-T-4 grown in TC (BHK-21) or suckling mouse brain (SMB). A total of 618 bovine and ovine field sera collected from BT-free and BT-endemic areas were also tested. The C-ELISA III was more sensitive than the C-ELISA II in the detection of anti-BTV antibody in sera from cattle and sheep early after infection with BTV. Seroconversion was demonstrated by the 3 C-ELISAs in all animals inoculated with BTV by 20 days postinfection (DPI), except in calves that received SA T-3 or USA T-13, which became positive at 40 DPI.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Two enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), one based on a mouse anti-Trypanosoma brucei group-specific monoclonal antibody and the other on rabbit anti-Trypanosoma evansi polyclonal antibodies, have been evaluated for their ability to detect circulating trypanosome antigens in camel sera as a means for the diagnosis of T. evansi infections. All 91 sera from a negative control camel herd from Kenya gave negative antigen-ELISA results in the monoclonal antibody-based ELISA and only 2 of them (2.2%) gave false positive results in the polyclonal antibody-based ELISA. In subsequent analyses of sera from infected camels (as determined by mouse inoculation), the monoclonal antibody-based ELISA detected antigens in 90 (83.3%) out of the 108 sera tested. This percentage was lower for the polyclonal antibody-based ELISA which was able to detect antigens in 67 (60.9%) out of the 110 sera tested. The two tests detected probably different antigens and when the results were combined, 99 out of 107 (92.5%) sera were shown to be ELISA positive. In a survey involving 316 camels from the Gao and Nara areas, in Mali, a high proportion of animals tested were antigen positive (43.5 and 42.9%, respectively for the mono- and polyclonal antibody-based ELISA) compared to only 22 (7.0%) diagnosed by the parasite detection techniques. Thus, these immunoassays were at least six times more sensitive than the haematocrit centrifugation technique. As a large proportion of cases may be antigen positive but parasite negative, these two of "surra" immunoassays should be used in routine diagnosis in addition to the parasite detection techniques in the dromedary camel. 相似文献

Bluetongue: Laboratory diagnosis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Definitive diagnosis of bluetongue virus (BTV) infection, often subclinical in domestic and wild ruminant relies heavily on laboratory techniques for BTV isolation and demonstration of BTV antigens, viral nucleic acids and antibodies. The virus can be isolated from blood components, mainly the erythrocyte fraction, collected from affected animals during the period of febrile response. Semen collected from male animals at the peak of viremia and tissues from affected animals and fetuses may also be used for BTV isolation. The primary procedure for BTV isolation is inoculation of embryonated chicken eggs with a subpassage onto cell cultures (e.g. BKH-21, Vero cell lines). In addition to the conventional techniques such as fluorescent antibody staining and virus neutralization procedures for sero-grouping and serotyping of BTV isolates, immunohistochemical, immunoenzymatic and immunoelectron microscopic techniques, using monoclonal antibodies (MAb), offer more rapid, specific and sensitive approaches for BTV identification and antigen detection. The progress of molecular biology, especially the development of genetic probes for hybridization analysis and polymerase chain reaction techniques for detection of BTV nucleic acids hold the promise of most efficient diagnostic assays. Among the various serogroup-specific assays for antibody detection, the agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) and competitive (C) ELISA are the most widely used tests. Because of its limitations (i.e. anticomplementary serum and complexity of the procedure) the complement fixation (CF) test is virtually abandoned and is used in only a few laboratories. Although the AGID test is simple to perform and rapid, it is not highly sensitive or quantitative and has limitations in its specificity. Sera containing antibodies to other group of Orbiviruses (e.g. epizootic hemorrhagic disease) may result in non-specific reaction in the AGID test. Among several ELISAs that have recently been developed, the C.ELISA in which a group-specific MAb to BTV is used, has proved to be the most sensitive and specific assay for detection of antibodies to BTV. Following extensive national and international validation, the C.ELISA is gradually replacing the AGID as a universal test to certify ruminants for trade purposes and to diagnose BT infection in domestic and wild animals. The cell culture-based microtiter serum neutralization (MTSN) is the most commonly used assay for the detection of serotype-specific antibodies to the recognized BTVs in animal sera. The MTSN may be used to type virus isolates and also to monitor animal population for specific serotypes of BTV in epidemiological investigations. 相似文献

A mixed infection with peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) and bluetongue virus (BTV) occurred in goats which exhibited symptoms characteristic of PPR. A number of samples were collected from ailing or dead goats for labrotory diagnosis. Antibody to BTV and PPRV was detected in sera samples by competitive ELISA. No PPRV antigen was detected in tissue samples like lung and spleen, however, presence of PPRV antigen in some sera samples was confirmed by sandwich ELISA. All the blood samples collected from the ailing animals were found positive for BTV antigen by a sandwich ELISA. BTV- and PPRV nucleic acids were amplified from the pooled blood and tissue samples respectively by RT-PCR assays. The identity of the amplicons was confirmed by cloning and sequencing. All these tests confirm that the goats were infected with PPRV and BTV simultaneously. Isolation of viruses from the clinical samples is underway. 相似文献

A blocking (B) dot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), using a monoclonal antibody (mAb) against a group specific antigen of bluetongue virus (BTV) is described for the detection of BTV antibodies to BTV in cattle sera. Dots of BTV antigens were adsorbed to nitrocellulose (NC) strips and/or NC mounted in the windows of dipsticks. After blocking the remaining sites of the NC paper with milk powder solution and immersion in the test sample, the NC strips and dipsticks were exposed to mAb. Bound mAb was detected with peroxidase conjugated anti-mouse IgG (H and L). In the absence of anti-BTV antibody in the test sample, BTV antigen sites were reactive with mAb as indicated by a brown colored dot in the presence of the enzyme substrate, hydrogen peroxide and diaminobenzidine. In the presence of sufficient anti-BTV antibodies no color reaction was observed. The performance of these assays in detecting anti-BTV antibody in field blood eluate samples, prepared from whole blood dried on filter paper, from 395 bluetongue-free cattle in Canada and 635 sentinel cattle in Florida, USA, was evaluated and compared with the standard competitive (C) ELISA. The specificity of the dipstick B-dot ELISA was identical to that of the C-ELISA in testing of BT-free Canadian cattle but not in the testing of samples from the sentinel cattle in Florida, resulting in values of 100% diagnostic and 88.9% relative specificity, respectively. Based on the C-ELISA, the specificity of the NC strip B-dot ELISA was low and in the same order as that of the dipstick assay.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A reliable bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) viral antigen was prepared from BVD virus grown on Madin Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells by solubilizing the virus with detergent MEGA-10 (decanoyl-N-methylglucamide) followed by removal of hydrophobic proteins with Triton X-100 treatment. By these treatments, problems of high background associated with BVD viral antigen in the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were eliminated. With this new antigen, an ELISA was adapted to detect bovine serum antibody against BVD virus. The diagnostic specificity of the assay in 403 bovine sera collected from a BVD virus-free herd was 100%; in 296 bovine sera with serum neutralizing antibody titers of greater than or equal to 1:2, 289 sera were ELISA positive (relative sensitivity of 97.6%), two sera gave false negative reactions (0.7%) and five sera gave suspicious reactions (1.7%). These interpretations were based on positive/negative (P/N) ratio readings, i.e. a P/N ratio of less than 1.50, 1.50-1.99 and greater than or equal to 2.00 were interpreted as negative, suspicious and positive reactions, respectively. The ELISA results gave excellent agreement with serum neutralization in detecting both seropositive and seronegative animals (Kappa = 0.994). The ELISA assay was considered to be technically superior to the serum neutralization test for the routine detection of BVD viral antibody in bovine sera. 相似文献

Recombinant 26 kDa capsid (CA) proteins of bovine lentiviruses, bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) and Jembrana disease virus (JDV), were expressed in Escherichia coli and utilised as antigens for an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and a western immunoblot (WIB) procedure for the detection of antibody in dairy cattle in Western Australia. A total of 690 serum samples, 30 from each of 23 farms, were tested by ELISA with a JDV CA protein antigen, and antibody was detected in 3.8% (p<0.05) of the sera. Nine sera from each farm were also tested by WIB with JDV CA protein antigens and antibody was detected in 15.9% of these samples. All ELISA-positive results were also WIB-positive, and all sera antibody-positive by WIB with JDV CA protein antigens were also antibody-positive by the WIB using recombinant BIV CA antigens. This study showed that recombinant protein antigens can be used for serological tests to detect bovine lentivirus infection in Australia. 相似文献

Identification of the serotype-specific and group-specific antigens of bluetongue virus 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
The bluetongue virus (BTV) core particle contains 2 major polypeptides, P3 and P7, and is surrounded by an outer capsid layer that is composed of the 2 major polypeptides, P2 and P5. Analysis of the immune precipitates from soluble 14C-labelled BTV polypeptides and hyper-immune rabbit and guinea-pig sera indicated that polypeptide P2 precipitates only with homologous BTV sera. This would indicate that P2 is the main determinant of serotype specificity. It was also found that in sheep infected with BTV the P2-precipitating antibodies in the serum correlate with the neutralizing antibody titres, whereas the appearance and subsequent decline of P7-precipitating antibodies correspond well with those of the complement fixing antibodies. This suggests that BTV group specificity, as measured by a complement fixation tests, is determined by the core protein P7. This result was supported by the observation that mouse ascitic fluid, which contains a high titre of BTV-specific complement fixing antibodies and a very low titre of neutralizing antibodies, contains almost exclusively antibodies that precipitate P7. 相似文献

Polysaccharide antigens were obtained from either the secretions produced during in vitro cultivation of Echinococcus granulosus protoscoleces or from mouse hydatid cyst membranes by phenol extraction. When either of these antigens was used in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay antibody activities were detected in sera from sheep infected 27 or more weeks earlier with at least 100 E granulosus eggs. These antibody responses were significantly higher (P less than 0.05) than those of sheep infected with Taenia hydatigena or T ovis and tested with the E granulosus antigens. Very high cross-reacting antibody responses in sera from sheep recently infected with T hydatigena were only detected with the protoscoleces secretions antigen. Neither antigen was sufficiently sensitive or specific for serodiagnostic use. However, when sera were first tested with one antigen and then with the other, and only sera that were positive in both tests were regarded as positive, the overall sensitivity and specificity of this two antigen method increased to about 80 per cent. 相似文献

A simple lated agglutination test (LAT) for the diagnosis of Babesia bovis and Anaplasma marginale infection in cattle was developed using cell culture-derived soluble antigens to sensitize latex particles. The conditions to perform the test were established as follows: a 2% suspension of polystyrene latex particles (0.8 μm diameter) in 0.15 M glycine buffer pH 8.3 containing 0.2% disodium-EDTA was used to sensitize an equal vlume of antigen at a final antigen concentration between 0.625×–1.25× of the original antigen concentration of the supernatant culture medium. The latex particles were sensitized for 15 min at 56°C, The test, which uses heat-inactivated sera, was performed at room temperature by mixing one drop of each antigen and serum on a glass slide. T he LAT showed a high degree of specificity and sensitivity when compared with the babesiosis indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) and anaplasmosis capillary tube-agglutination (CA) tests. The LAT possesses appropriate stability and simplicity suitable for field purposes. 相似文献

Ibaraki virus, which causes a bluetongue-like disease of cattle in Japan, was compared antigenically with the four serotypes of bluetongue virus (BTV) found in the U.S. and with the two serotypes of epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV). No antigenic relationship was found between Ibaraki virus and BTV serotypes 10, 11, 13, and 17 in tests for group or serotype-specific antigens. However, Ibaraki virus and EHDV were related antigenically. The agar gel precipitin and indirect fluorescent antibody tests for group antigens showed two-way cross relationships between Ibaraki virus and EHDV serotypes 1 and 2. The more restrictive serotype-specific neutralization test revealed that antigenic relatedness was stronger between Ibaraki virus and the serotype 2 (Alberta strain) of EHDV than between Ibaraki virus and the serotype 1 (New Jersey strain) of EHDV. 相似文献

The complement fixation-inhibition (CFI) test was described for the detection of antibodies to arboviruses in bird sera. The CFI antibody present in bird sera inhibited the standard complement-fixation reaction of a reference complement-fixing antigen-antibody pair. Using reference antigens (St. Louis encephalitis, eastern equine encephalomyelitis, western equine encephalomyelitis, and yellow fever) prepared from infected mouse brains and reference antisera prepared in rabbits or horses, reproducible CFI antibody titers were obtained in artificially immunized chickens. Time-course studies on the CFI immune response in birds inoculated with live St. Louis encephalitis virus indicated that the CFI antibody was distinct from the antibody detected by the hemagglutination-inhibition test. 相似文献

The serological responses of dogs to cell wall and internal antigens of B. canis were studied in experimentally infected specific-pathogen-free (SPF) Beagles. Sera from infected and false positive field dogs also were examined. Cell wall antigens were extracted from B. canis by two procedures that employed either hot phosphate buffered saline (PBS) or sodium desoxycholate (SDC). Agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) tests employing sera from experimentally infected SPF dogs were used to evaluate antigenic extracts. Extraction with PBS yielded two antigens; SDC extracted an antigen complex and sonication of PBS extracted cells liberated four internal antigens.Sera from field dogs that were negative for B. canis infection in repeated tests often had heterospecific antibodies. Such cross-reactive sere commonly gave “spur” (partial fusion) reactions with a positive reference serum when tested against the SDC cell wall antigen. In addition, false positive dogs did not have antibody to one of the cell wall antigens or to the internal antigens. In contrast, sera from infected field dogs commonly gave “identity” (fusion) reactions in the AGID test with two antigens in the SDC extract, and produced precipitin lines to one to four internal antigens.Examination of a library of sera obtained from experimentally infected SPF dogs over a period spanning 4 years revealed that none of the serodiagnostic tests employed (tube agglutination, slide agglutination, AGID) was accurate during the inital 12 weeks of infection; hemocultures were the most sensitive during this period. Tube and slide agglutination tests were initially sensitive, but they showed a lack of sensitivity and specificity after the bacteremic period ceased, as well as in their failure to exclude false positive reactions in field animals. Immunodiffusion tests that employed SDC or PBS extracts of B. canis cell walls were sensitive and accurate in identifying most infected dogs. After the bacteremia had ceased, however, AGID tests that employed cell wall antigens gave equivocal results. Immunodiffusion tests that employed sonicated (internal) antigens were sensitive shortly after the onset of bacteremia, and they had the advantage of detecting infected animals for at least 6 months following the cessation of bacteremia, a time when other serological tests gave equivocal results. 相似文献

Background: Outbreak of bluetongue virus serotype‐8 (BTV‐8) infection in domestic ruminants in Northern Europe. Objective: To investigate the South American camelids' (SAC) susceptibility to BTV‐8 infection, their role in the epidemiology of the disease, and the use of currently available serological screening tests in SAC in an endemic region. Animals: Three hundred and fifty‐four unvaccinated and 27 vaccinated SAC (170 llamas, 201 alpacas), ranging in age from 1 month to 17 years between June and August 2008. The SAC originated from 44 herds throughout the country, representing 10% of the Swiss SAC population. Methods: Prospective, observational study of a convenience sample of SAC. Serum samples were analyzed with 2 serological screening tests. When results diverged, a 3rd ELISA was carried out for confirmation (ID Screen Bluetongue Competition ELISA kit). Results: All sera from the 354 unvaccinated animals were negative in the endemic region. Reliable seroconversion was observed after administration of 2 doses of vaccine. Conclusions and Clinical Importance: This study suggests a low susceptibility of SAC to BTV‐8 despite the presence of the virus in the cattle and small ruminant population, indicating that SAC do not play a major role in the epidemiology of BTV‐8. Furthermore, these results indicate that commercially available serological tests for BTV‐8 can be used in SAC. 相似文献

Development and evaluation of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for bovine antibody (IgG) to Pasteurella haemolytica 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The sensitivity of an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for bovine IgG serum antibody to Pasteurella haemolytica was compared with that of an indirect hemagglutination (IHA) test. Pasteurella haemolytica serotypes were grown in a chemically defined cell culture medium, and soluble antigens released into the growth medium were used in the ELISA and IHA test. An ELISA with serotype-1 antigen consistently detected antibody in sera that were positive by IHA test (correlation, 99%). Sera reacting with serotype-1 ELISA antigens also reacted with ELISA antigens prepared from other serotypes. Although ELISA titers averaged 5 log2 units higher than IHA titers, plots of titers determined by the 2 methods were approximately linear. Titer increases detected in paired serum samples by either test were similar. The ELISA was more sensitive than was the IHA in detecting colostral IgG antibody in serum of newborn calves. The ELISA uses a simple, stable antigen preparation and detects antibody to P haemolytica serotypes that commonly infect cattle. 相似文献

Evaluation of a hemolysis-in-gel test for detection and quantitation of antibodies to bluetongue virus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A hemolysis-in-gel (HIG) test was developed to detect and quantitate antibody to bluetongue virus (BTV). The HIG test was sensitive and accurate when applied to sera from sheep and cattle infected with BTV. Sensitized sheep RBC were prepared by adsorption of partly purified BTV to the cells. Regression analysis of data showed a linear relationship between the diameter of the hemolytic zone and the log of the antibody concentration. The HIG test did not differentiate among antiodies to four serotypes of BTV, but did differentiate between antibody of BTV and antibody to epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus. 相似文献

An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (I.ELISA) is described for detection of bovine serum antibody to epizootic hemorrhagic diseases of deer virus (EHDV). Serum samples, at a dilution of 1:200, were incubated with group-specific EHDV antigens, pre-adsorbed to microtiter plates. Bound antibodies were detected by a murine monoclonal antibody to bovine immunoglobulin (Ig)G1 (heavy-chain specific) conjugated with horseradish peroxidase. The performance of the I.ELISA in detecting antibodies to EHDV in sequential serum samples from calves experimentally infected with serotypes 1,2,3 and 4 was evaluated. The I.ELISA detected EHDV antibodies from 14 days postinfection when seroconversion by the standard agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) test was also evident. The group-specific antibodies to EHDV increased exponentially during the first two to four weeks postinfection and remained relatively stable for about 12 months in some calves. Unlike observations with the AGID test, no reaction was seen in the I.ELISA between blue-tongue virus (BTV) antigen and sera from calves given a single dose of EHDV. The performance of the I.ELISA and AGID were compared using 3,135 AGID negative bovine field sera from herds in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia and 130 AGID positive samples collected from cattle in 1987 and 1988 during and after outbreaks of EHD in the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia. The specificity and sensitivity of the assay relative to the AGID test were 99.3% and 91.5% respectively, with an overall agreement of 99.0% between the tests.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
