Campylobacteriosis is a zoonosis that occurs worldwide. Infection with Campylobacter fetus (C. fetus) causes infertility and abortion in sheep and cattle. The current study focuses on the SapA gene of C. fetus that encodes surface array proteins and plays an important role in the virulence of C. fetus. The SapA-N (1398 bp) and SapA-C (1422 bp) fragments were amplified from the C. fetusSapA gene using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and the corresponding recombinant proteins rSapA-N and rSapA-C were expressed in Escherichia. coli BL21 cells. Results of Western blotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) showed that the immunological activity of rSapA-N was higher than that of rSapA-C (P < 0.05). Therefore, rSapA-N was selected to establish an indirect ELISA for detecting antibodies against C. fetus. The diagnostic criteria were as follows: S/P ? 0.45: positive; S/P < 0.4: negative; 0.45 > S/P ? 0.4: suspected. The specificity and sensitivity of our method were 94.3% and 88.6%, respectively. Moreover, no cross-reactions were observed between rSapA-N and serum samples that were positive for other bovine bacterial pathogens diseases such as Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis. One hundred and two serum samples from cows that had experienced abortion were tested. Four and 2 C. fetus-positive serum samples were found among the 70 bovine brucellosis-positive samples and the 32 infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR)-positive samples, respectively. The findings suggest that the rSapA-N-based ELISA method has immense potential in future applications. 相似文献

A 2-stage strategy was developed and evaluated for estimating serum antibody titer by use of ELISA and a series of dilutions. In stage 1, the linear response region and least-square estimate of the assay line slope were established from 9-point dilution assays. Provided that the reading was within the linear response region, this information was used in the stage-2 estimation of titer from a single absorbance reading. Operationally, 2 fixed dilutions were selected, one suitably low and one suitably high, to provide at least one reading within the linear region. The procedure should save considerable time when a large number of assays are to be performed. Stage 1 required approximately twenty 9-point assays, but all subsequent assays required only 2 fixed dilutions. 相似文献

A double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the detection of endotoxin in milk samples. Bovine and rabbit antisera raised in response to vaccination with the J5 mutant of Escherichia coli 0111:B4 were used. Antiserum to this mutant has been shown to be cross-reactive with endotoxin from other gram-negative organisms. Known quantities of endotoxin were added to milk samples to generate a standard curve. Acid treatment of whole milk enhanced the detection of endotoxin as compared to untreated whole milk, skim milk and chloroform-treated milk. Milk samples from experimentally induced mastitic cows were then assayed for endotoxin content. Recovery of endotoxin, as measured by ELISA, positively correlated with the amount of endotoxin infused and the time post-infusion of sampling. However, when endotoxin from these samples was quantitated using the Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) assay, readings tended to increase, suggesting false-positive reactions with the LAL assay. Milk samples from cases of clinical mastitis were assayed by ELISA with 64% of these showing measurable levels of endotoxin. While further studies of this assay are needed, refinements may produce an assay important for clinical applications. 相似文献

Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is a sporadic but fatal lymphoproliferative viral disease of cattle, deer and other ruminants. The causative agents are highly-cell-associated herpesviruses of the subfamily gammaherpesvirinae. In this study, an ELISA (WC11-ELISA) was developed to detect antibody to malignant catarrhal fever virus (MCFV) in cattle serum and compared to the commercially produced competitive-inhibition ELISA (CI-ELISA). Crude lysate antigen from alcelaphine herpesvirus-1 strain WC11 was bound to 96-well microplates and used to capture antibodies to MCFV. Dilutions of test sera were added to wells containing bound MCF antigen and control wells containing uninfected cell lysates. A horseradish peroxidase-labelled rabbit-anti-bovine IgG conjugate detected antibodies to MCF, and the results were expressed as absorbance readings at 450 nm. Samples were selected blind from cattle sera which had been sent to the laboratory for diagnostic testing for MCFV antibodies and were tested in both the WC11-ELISA and the CI-ELISA. Good agreement between the WC11-ELISA and CI-ELISA test (k=0.86, n=95) results was found. 相似文献

Pythiosis (caused by the aquatic oomycete Pythium insidiosum) is a devastating and often fatal cause of either severe transmural gastroenteritis or locally invasive subcutaneous disease in dogs living in the southeastern United States. Although early diagnosis is essential for successful treatment, tools available for this task are limited. Therefore, we developed and evaluated an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of anti-P insidiosum antibodies in canine serum. A soluble mycelial extract of P insidiosum was utilized as antigen in the ELISA, which was used to evaluate serum from 43 dogs with pythiosis, 8 dogs with lagenidiosis (another canine oomycosis), 16 dogs with nonoomycotic fungal or algal infections, 22 dogs with nonfungal gastrointestinal or skin disease, and 55 healthy dogs. Results were expressed as percent positivity (PP) relative to a strong positive control serum run on each plate. Medians and ranges for each of the 5 groups were as follows: pythiosis (81.7%, 50.6-98.5%), lagenidiosis (17.3%, 11.3-29.2%), other fungal or algal infections (8.2%, 4.7-15.4%), nonfungal gastrointestinal or skin disease (6.2%, 3.9-20.7%), and healthy dogs (6.7%, 3.0-15.2%). When using a cutoff value of 40% PP, the sensitivity and specificity of the ELISA both were 100%. In addition, ELISA values measured after successful surgical therapy in 2 dogs showed a decrease of anti-P insidiosum antibody concentrations into the normal range as early as 2 months after treatment. We conclude that the ELISA is a sensitive and specific test for the diagnosis of canine pythiosis, and may be a useful tool for monitoring response to medical or surgical therapy. 相似文献

A Bordetella avium enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect serum antibodies in 1-day-old poults, experimentally infected turkeys, and naturally infected turkeys. The optimized procedure included use of a suspension of whole bacteria coated onto plastic microtiter plates, a 1:200 serum dilution, a 1:3200 dilution of commercially available goat anti-turkey IgG (heavy and light chain) conjugated with horseradish peroxidase, and 0.04% orthophenylenediamine as substrate. A sample/negative (S/N) ratio method of analysis was used to estimate antibody titer from absorbance values. The regression equation used to estimate antibody titers was derived from the testing of naturally infected turkey sera. The equation was derived by plotting the log10 titer of the sera against the S/N ratio at a 1:200 serum dilution. The ELISA was an effective method for detecting antibody to B. avium, and the procedure should prove useful for laboratories equipped for high-volume ELISA testing. 相似文献

Infectious coryza is an acute respiratory disease caused by infection with Avibacterium (Haemophilus) paragallinarum. It is characterized by nasal discharge and facial swelling and is associated with growth retardation and a reduction in egg production. Hemagglutination inhibition (HI) tests are used to estimate vaccine-induced immunity against infectious coryza in vitro; however, these procedures are complicated and their sensitivity is insufficient. To address these problems, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique using serovar-specific regions of HMTp210 (210 kDa), an outer-membrane protein of A. paragallinarum, was developed to measure the antibodies against infectious coryza. Chickens with an ELISA titer of 0.3 or more did not exhibit clinical signs of infectious coryza against challenge with A. paragallinarum, although their HI antibody titers were negative. On the other hand, chickens with an ELISA titer below 0.3 exhibited clinical signs of the disease with one exception. Antibody prevalence rates on ELISA were 80% and 60% against infection with serovars A and C, respectively, and ELISA also detected antibodies in chickens infected with A. paragallinarum with a sensitivity higher than that of HI tests. Taken together, the ELISA technique developed in this study is a valuable tool for the measurement of antibodies produced against the infectious coryza vaccine or in response to an infection with A. paragallinarum. 相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was evaluated as a method of determining relative immunoconversion rates in calves and how immunoconversion rates and strength of optical density values correlate with prevalence of Fasciola hepatica fecal egg shedding. Ten to 55 calves and cows were examined from each of 10 separate beef cattle herds in central and southern Louisiana. Infection prevalence rates for calves averaged 8% higher when ELISA optical density values were used than those when fecal egg count data were used. Of 55 calves in 8 herds that were ELISA positive, 39 were shedding F hepatica eggs; of 53 calves that were shedding eggs, 14 were ELISA negative. Significant correlation of calf fecal and ELISA prevalence was observed for 8 herds by linear regression analysis. A chi 2 analysis showed that calf ELISA and fecal egg shedding data were not independent. Results indicate that positive ELISA reactions for as few as 10 to 15 calves from the fall calf crop of a given herd are sufficiently accurate to be used to assess F hepatica herd infection rates, the likelihood of liver condemnations at feedlot destinations, and variation between individual farms in fascioliasis infection risk. The test was less valuable as a diagnostic test when used in adult animals previously exposed to F hepatica or on an individual animal basis. 相似文献

A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using a monoclonal antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase MA(A) and a complement fixation test (CFT) were applied to sera collected over a two-year period from 60 cattle challenged with Brucella abortus strain 544. Forty-eight of the cattle were previously vaccinated with B. abortus strain 19 (S19) or B. abortus strain 45/20 (45/20). After challenge 33 of the cattle remained uninfected and nine of the 27 infected cattle showed aberrant reactions by the CFT. The performance of the MA(A) ELISA was as follows: after vaccination, the MA(A) ELISA, like the CFT, was unable to differentiate infected cattle from those recently vaccinated with S19. After challenge the MA(A) ELISA gave results comparable with the CFT for those cattle with aberrant reactions. For the non-infected cattle there was a similar number of weeks after challenge when both tests were negative. It is suggested that the main advantage of the MA(A) ELISA when compared with the CFT lies in its relatively simple test procedure. 相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to measure accurately levels of the trypanocidal drug isometamidium in the serum of treated cattle. The assay requires only 5 microliters of test serum, is sensitive to a level of 0.5 pg ml-1 and is highly specific. Cross reactivity does not occur with the two other widely used trypanocidal drugs diminazene aceturate and homidium bromide. Serum drug levels are detectable for up to six months in cattle after a single dose of 1 mg kg-1 intramuscularly, the maximum period under field conditions for which effective prophylaxis can be maintained against tsetse challenge. Application of the assay will aid the rationalisation of treatment campaigns and assist in assessing the occurrence of drug-resistant trypanosome populations. 相似文献

The results of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) For the detection of antibody against Mycoplasma mycoides subsp mycoides are presented. Antibody was detected in the sera of cattle at least 19 months after recovery from an infection and at least 23 months after vaccination. Almost half the sera of some animals in an area of Nigera where contagious bovine pleuropneumonia is enzootic contained antibody. Antibody was rarely detected when the same sera were examined by other established serological tests, emphasising the sensitivity of the ELISA. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibody (mAb, NVRQS-DON) against deoxynivalenol (DON) was prepared. DON-Ag coated enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and DON-Ab coated ELISA were prepared by coating the DON-BSA and DON mAb. Quantitative DON calculation ranged from 50 to 4,000 ng/mL for DON-Ab coated ELISA and from 25 to 500 ng/mL for DON-Ag coated ELISA. 50% of inhibitory concentration values of DON, HT-2, 15-acetyl-DON, and nivalenol were 23.44, 22,545, 5,518 and 5,976 ng/mL based on the DON-Ab coated ELISA. Cross-reactivity levels of the mAb to HT-2, 15-acetyl-DON, and nivalenol were 0.1, 0.42, and 0.40%. The intra- and interassay precision coefficient variation (CV) were both <10%. In the mAb-coated ELISA, mean DON recovery rates in animal feed (0 to 1,000 µg/kg) ranged from 68.34 to 95.49% (CV; 4.10 to 13.38%). DON in a buffer solution (250, 500 and 1,000 ng/mL) was isolated using 300 µg of NVRQS-DON and 3 mg of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). The mean recovery rates of DON using this mAb-MNP system were 75.2, 96.9, and 88.1% in a buffer solution spiked with DON (250, 500, and 1,000 ng/mL). Conclusively we developed competitive ELISAs for detecting DON in animal feed and created a new tool for DON extraction using mAb-coupled MNPs. 相似文献

Two enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) for the determination of homidium in serum of treated cattle have been developed and evaluated. One is a direct competition (Assay 1) and the other an indirect competition assay (Assay 2). Both assays are highly sensitive with a limit of detection of 0.1 ng homidium per mL serum. Homidium levels were measurable in serum of cattle for over 2 months following administration of a single intramuscular (i.m.) dose at 1 mg/kg bodyweight. The level of sensitivity afforded by these assays makes them potentially useful tools in the pharmacokinetic evaluation of homidium and for investigating drug resistance or causes of drug failure. Assay 2 was chosen as being most suitable for further studies. 相似文献

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay screening of antibody produced against aflatoxin was accomplished by a new and simple procedure. To demonstrate the new indirect ELISA technique used, antibody against aflatoxin M1 was produced in female BALB/CJ mice by immunization with an aflatoxin M1-bovine serum albumin conjugate. Instead of coating test-plate wells with purified antibody (direct ELISA) or synthesizing a second protein-aflatoxin conjugate (aflatoxin M1-poly-L-lysine) to coat test-plate wells, wells were coated with the readily available aflatoxin M1-bovine serum albumin and aflatoxin B1-bovine serum albumin. This method, applicable for any aflatoxin conjugated by the common cyclopentano-carboxymethoxyl-oxime technique, eliminates the more time-consuming and technically difficult portions of earlier direct and indirect ELISA. The new technique can be valuable in continued efforts toward development of new and improved immunoassays against aflatoxin metabolites. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate an ELISA for quantitative analysis of feline trypsin-like immunore-activity (fTLI). SAMPLE POPULATION: Purified feline cationic trypsin (fCT) and rabbit anti-fCT antiserum; blood samples from 63 healthy cats. PROCEDURES: A sandwich capture ELISA was developed, using anti-fCT antiserum purified by affinity chromatography that underwent biotinylation. Purified fCT was used for standards. The assay was validated by determination of sensitivity, working range, linearity, accuracy, precision, and reproducibility. A reference range was established by assaying serum samples from the 63 healthy cats. RESULTS: Sensitivity was 1.23 microg/L; working range was 2 to 567 microg/L. Ratios of observed versus expected results for 4 samples tested at various dilutions ranged from 90.0 to 120.7%. Ratios of observed versus expected results for 5 samples spiked with various concentrations of fCT ranged from 82.0 to 101.8%. Intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variability ranged from 9.9 to 11.1% and from 10.2 to 21.7%, respectively. The reference range for serum fTLI measured with this ELISA was 12 to 82 microg/L. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results suggest that an ELISA can be used to measure serum fTLI in cats. The ELISA was sufficiently sensitive, linear, accurate, precise, and reproducible for clinical use. 相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed on the basis of testing a single dilution of serum to quantify the level of antibody to the p57 protein of Renibacterium salmoninarum in sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka). The levels of antibody were interpolated from a standard curve constructed by relating the optical densities (OD) produced by several dilutions of a high-titer rainbow trout (O. mykiss) antiserum to the p57 protein. The ELISA OD values produced by as many as 36 test sera on each microplate were compared with the standard curve to calculate the antigen-specific antibody activity. Repeated measurements of 36 samples on 3 microplates on each of 6 assay dates indicated that the mean intraassay coefficient of variation (CV) was 6.68% (range, 0-23%) and the mean interassay CV was 8.29% (range, 4-16%). The antibody levels determined for the serum sample from 24 sockeye salmon vaccinated with a recombinant p57 protein generally were correlated with the levels determined by endpoint titration (r2 = 0.936) and with results from another ELISA that was based on extrapolation of antibody levels from a standard curve (r2 = 0.956). The single-dilution antibody ELISA described here increases the number of samples that can be tested on each microplate compared with immunoassays based on analysis of several dilutions of each test serum. It includes controls for interassay standardization and can be used to test fish weighing <3 g. 相似文献

A microplate indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for antibodies against reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) was consistently more sensitive than indirect immunofluorescent-antibody tests. Limits of antibody detection were comparable to those obtained in virus neutralizations. Detection of REV-infected chickens long after infection and after immunofluorescent antibody has waned makes ELISA especially suitable for screening chicken flocks. 相似文献

Two serological tests--the virus-neutralization (VN) test in chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) using a cell-culture-adapted virus, and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)--were used for evaluating the immune response in chickens against fowlpox virus. The VN test was conducted in 96-well tissue-culture plates using a fowlpox virus that was adapted to induce cytopathic effects (CPE) in CEF in 48 hr. The ELISA was carried out with an antigen prepared by precipitation of a cell-culture-propagated virus suspension with ammonium sulfate and concentration by centrifugation. A 0.1 M acetate buffer, pH 5, was used as the sensitizing solution for maximum specific binding of the antigen to the microplate plastic well. No antibodies were detected by the VN test in 228 serum samples taken from chickens at irregular intervals between 1 and 39 weeks of age, even though the birds were vaccinated against fowlpox at 13 weeks of age. However, in sera collected 4 weeks after a sample of laying hens was challenged with fowlpox virus, VN titers of 1/10 to 1/40 were detectable. On the other hand, significant antibody reactions were detected by the ELISA on sera from chickens during the growing period, following vaccination and challenge. Although no maternal antibodies were found at 1 week of age, a continuous increase in the mean ELISA titers to fowlpox was demonstrated during the entire experimental period. This study showed that the ELISA was considerably more sensitive and practical than the VN test. 相似文献
