Two serological tests, the virus-neutralization (VN) test in tissue culture using a tissue-cell-adapted virus and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), were compared to detect antibodies against Massachusetts 41 and Connecticut 46 strains of Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV). The VN test was conducted in wells of microplates by the usual procedure. The two strains of IBV were adapted after 20 serial passages to induce CPE in 24 hours in chickens embryos kidney cells (CEKC). The ELISA test was carried out using partially virus following ultracentrifugation of each stain of IBV as antigen. The ELISA test detected higher geometric mean antibody titers (GMT) against both strains of IBV than did the VN test. One hundred four serum samples taken at 1, 3, 5, 9, 22, 24, and 26 weeks of age from a flock of chickens vaccinated with the Mass strain three times and the Conn strain of IBV two times during the growing period showed higher antibody titer responses to the Conn 46 than to the Mass 41 strain. Maternal antibodies in chicks one week of age were readily detected by the ELISA test, whereas low or insignificant titers were found by the VN test. Sera of vaccinated chickens collected following challenge with Mass 41 or Conn 46 strain of IBV showed that the ELISA was more sensitive and showed higher titers than did the VN test. Although the VN test showed no rise in GMT in the same sera tested with the heterologous virus, the ELISA showed a slight increase or cross-reaction. The serum samples from the unchallenged control group showed no change in GMT with either test or IBV strain. 相似文献

An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to measure humoral antibody responses of chickens against Pasteurella multocida. A standard indirect hemagglutination (IHA) test was used to compare serologic results with those of ELISA. The ELISA was also used following challenge with P. multocida to compare the efficacy of three commercial fowl cholera vaccination regimens. Although antibody titers measured by ELISA and IHA were highly correlated, ELISA was at least twice as sensitive as IHA. Antibody measured by ELISA and IHA also correlated significantly with protection against P. multocida challenge. No mortality occurred in any of the three vaccinated challenged groups. However, control unvaccinated chickens experimentally infected with P. multocida developed signs of acute pasteurellosis and died by the 10th day post-challenge. Impression smears made of hepatic tissue from all chickens were stained (Wright's stain), and typical bipolar rods characteristic of Pasteurella were identified in smears from unvaccinated challenged controls only. 相似文献

Fowl cholera immunity in broiler breeder chickens determined by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect antibodies in broiler breeders vaccinated (wing web) with the CU fowl cholera vaccine. Birds were bled weekly from 9 to 26 weeks, every other week from 26 to 40 weeks, and every 4 weeks from 40 to 56 weeks of age. Overall mean ELISA antibody titers (9 to 56 weeks) reported as log10 values and survivability of the vaccinates after virulent challenge were as follows: unvaccinated--5.75, 48%; birds vaccinated once at 8 weeks--5.91, 78%; birds vaccinated twice at 8 and 14 weeks--6.11, 100%; birds vaccinated thrice at 8, 14, and 20 weeks--6.23, 100%; birds vaccinated twice at 8 and 20 weeks--6.12, 100%; and birds vaccinated twice at 8 and 20 weeks (plus fowl pox at 8 weeks)--6.08, 95%. Survivability in the vaccinates after virulent challenge with strain X-73 Pasteurella multocida was 100% in birds with ELISA antibody titers (log10) greater than 6.02. Under the conditions of this experiment, birds vaccinated two or three times between 8 and 20 weeks proved to be sufficiently immune at 56 weeks of age to withstand a virulent fowl cholera challenge. Birds not vaccinated or vaccinated only once at 8 weeks were not sufficiently immunized to withstand virulent challenge. 相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to measure antibodies to infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) in chickens. The results are reported in IBV standard ELISA values calculated by comparing antibody levels in test sera with antibody levels in a series of standard reference sera. The IBV standard ELISA values were good indicators of responses to vaccination and the immune status of experimentally challenged birds. Although the assay was not serotype-specific, the sensitivity makes it ideally suited for determining the immune status of poultry flocks. The assay results compared favorably with other laboratory results, including virus-neutralization titers, hemagglutination-inhibition levels in sera, virus isolation from vaccinated/challenged birds, and the tracheal ring test results. 相似文献

Broiler minibreeder hens were vaccinated for protection against fowl cholera at 12 and 21 weeks of age using several vaccination schemes, which included a live Pasteurella multocida (CU strain) vaccine, two commercial polyvalent fowl cholera oil-based bacterins, and two experimentally prepared polyvalent oil-based bacterins. Some treatment groups received only live or killed vaccines, whereas others received a live vaccine at 12 weeks followed by a killed product at 21 weeks. At 42 weeks of age, all birds that received the live CU vaccine twice or once followed by a bacterin survived challenge. Birds that received killed vaccines only were significantly less protected but still showed a respectable survival rate of 86%. All unvaccinated controls died within 72 hr after challenge. At 72 weeks of age, overall protection was lower than that at 42 weeks, regardless of vaccination treatment. Antibody titers were usually higher in birds that received bacterins than in those receiving live vaccines, yet overall protection was still greater in those birds that received the live cholera vaccine twice. 相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detecting antibodies to Pasteurella multocida in chickens 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect the humoral antibody response in chickens receiving subcutaneous injections of the CU vaccine strain of Pasteurella multocida. Serum samples were collected twice weekly for 3 weeks, and chicken antibody responses were monitored using ELISA. The positive/negative ratio method of analysis was used to determine the antibody titer of vaccinated chickens. After a loge transformation of the ELISA titer, a linear relationship was confirmed between ELISA titer and positive/negative ratio. Regression analysis was used to construct a standard curve and derive an equation from this relationship. Using this equation, only one dilution was needed to determine the antibody titer of any unknown serum sample. The ELISA technique was used to monitor the mean antibody titer of vaccinated chickens over the 3-week period. A classic primary response curve occurred when titer was plotted against time. 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

Individual variations in serological response to avian influenza virus infection were demonstrated after experimental infection of specific-pathogen-free chickens with H6N2 influenza virus. Homologous antibodies were detected from the 6th to the 157th day after infection using hemagglutination-inhibition or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and from the 11th to the 157th day by agar gel precipitation test. 相似文献

A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was developed and compared with the serum neutralisation test for bovine pestivirus using 508 cattle sera and serial serum samples from a goat hyperimmunized with five bovine pestivirus isolates. There was 96.7% agreement between the two tests. The relative sensitivity of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay compared to the serum neutralisation test was 95.2% and the relative specificity was 99.4%. The titres of individual animals in the assay did not show a close correlation with serum neutralisation test titres. This may be because the antibodies measured in the two tests are directed against different viral proteins. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has the advantage of being quicker and cheaper than the serum neutralisation test. The configuration used in the ELISA means sera from all species can be tested for pestivirus antibody using the same set of reagents. 相似文献

A blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for detecting antibodies against bovine enterovirus (BEV) in bovine sera. In this ELISA, bovine serum samples were allowed to react with captured viral antigens (by specific chicken IgG), before the addition of specific mouse IgG for measuring non-occupied viral epitopes. The ELISA was slightly more sensitive and required a shorter time period than traditional serum neutralisation (SN). Among the 871 bovine serum samples tested so far, the titres produced by this assay had a significant correlation with those recorded by SN. The ELISA could be used as an alternative assay for SN in a large-scale BEV antibody investigation. 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

Labeled avidin-biotin enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detecting antibody to infectious laryngotracheitis virus in chickens 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A labeled avidin-biotin enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (LAB-ELISA) for detecting antibody to infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) virus in chicken sera was developed and compared with ordinary ELISA. Purified ILT virus, biotin-labeled anti-chicken IgG rabbit IgG conjugate, and horseradish-peroxidase-labeled avidin were used in the LAB-ELISA. When sera from farm chickens were tested by serum neutralization (SN) and two kinds of ELISA, the correlation rate between SN and LAB-ELISA was 50/50 (100%), and that between SN and ordinary ELISA was 39/50 (78%). In LAB-ELISA, all of the sera that were antibody-negative by SN had low absorbance (A) values (below 0.05), and the A values were closely correlated with the SN indexes. In ordinary ELISA, however, the sera antibody-negative by SN had various A values ranging from 0.06 to 0.32. LAB-ELISA had much lower nonspecific reactions than ordinary ELISA against sera from ILT-negative chickens, even when chickens were 30 weeks old. ILT antibody production after ILT vaccination could be detected by LAB-ELISA. A values peaked 5 weeks postinoculation and were maintained for 17 weeks. 相似文献

The use of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for estimation of the immune status of chickens artificially immunized against coccidiosis 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Nine thousand commercial breeder chicks (Chankee) reared in a floor pen were exposed to restricted numbers of Eimeria tenella and E. necatrix oocysts to confer immunity. Antibody induction in these chicks was examined by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with antigen prepared from E. tenella oocysts. The oocyst excretion pattern demonstrated recycled infections which continued in these chicks for greater than or equal to 22 days after exposure. Antibody levels in their sera, as determined by the mean absorbence values in ELISA, increased gradually up to 38 days post-inoculation. Mean absorbence values of sera from control chicks remained at a low level. When infected and control chicks were challenged with the two species of coccidia, the test chicks were protected against both species. The antibody level did not change for 8 days in the challenge groups, while in the control chicks, absorbence in ELISA rose significantly and the mean absorbence value was higher than that in immunized chicks. Some factors which influence the results of ELISA are considered and the applicability of this method to measuring immunity against coccidiosis in chickens is discussed. 相似文献

Antisera prepared in mice by injection of antigens from Dirofilaria immitis, Toxocara canis, Dipylidium canium and Fasciola hepatica and sera from Dirofilaria-infected and non-infected dogs were tested at different dilutions using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). For this ELISA, adult D. immitis antigen was fractionated by gel filtration methods and then absorbed with immunoadsorbent-fixed IgG fractions from mouse sera immunized with various parasites. The results indicated satisfactory discrimination between antisera to D. immitis and those to other parasites. A significant ELISA O.D. value was considered to be greater than or equal to 0.30 with a 1 : 250 dilution of the dog sera. However, the lack of significant differences between the O.D. value of microfilaraemic and amicrofilaraemic infections was observed. These facts suggest that the use of immunoadsorbent chromatography for canine dirofilariasis is especially useful for purifying antigens and eliminating cross-reactions against other parasitic infections, when immunological methods are used for serodiagnosis. 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

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of antibodies to avian adenovirus and avian adenovirus-associated virus in chickens 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay system (ELISA) was adapted for the detection of antibodies to avian adenovirus (AV) and avian adenovirus-associated virus (A-AV). Both before and after exposure, sera from chickens undergoing natural and experimental infections were assayed by ELISA, virus neutralization (VN), and immunodiffusion (ID) for antibody to both CELO virus and A-AV. The ELISA system was found to be comparable to VN for determining antibody concentrations to CELO virus and A-AV. In many cases, ELISA was found to be more sensitive than ID. 相似文献

Five laboratories participated in a study to evaluate sources of variation in results from an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for antibodies against Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis. Each laboratory repeatedly tested duplicates of a negative, positive (P), and high-positive (HP) serum sample, which were supplied by the United States Department of Agriculture: Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service: Veterinary Services, National Veterinary Services Laboratories, Ames, IA, on all 96-well microtiter plates when routinely testing other samples for M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis antibodies. These 3 sera were aliquoted and sent to the 5 participating laboratories. This study focused on variation in test results because of assay reagents and laboratory techniques and did not account for biologic variability associated with the time course of infection in cattle. Overall, results from 868 microtiter plates were used in the study. For each sample a sample-to-positive (S/P) ratio was calculated according to the manufacturer's directions. The S/ P ratio for the P sample ranged from 0.06 to 1.039 (mean = 0.466 and 0.484 for wells 1 and 2, respectively) and those for the HP sample ranged from 2.446 to 8.727 (mean = 4.027 and 3.980 for wells 1 and 2, respectively). The majority of the variation in S/P ratio for the P sample was attributed to kit lot (37.5%), followed by random (unexplained) error (27.0%), laboratory (18.3%), and kit lot by laboratory (11.9%). By eliminating plates in which the separation between negative and positive control ODs was less than 0.4, the proportion of variation attributed to laboratory was reduced markedly. These results confirm that there is variability in M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis ELISA results and that several sources contribute to the observed variability. The study gives a relative estimate of the contribution of various sources to the overall variability observed in the M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis ELISA results with kit lot being a primary contributor. Similar data for other ELISA tests for antibodies to M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis or other antigens also should be developed. 相似文献

Direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for sulfamethazine 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

A direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for screening sulfamethazine (SMZ) in pork tissues was developed. The assay was made with the affinity-purified polyclonal antibody-coated microtiter plate. A cross reactivity of IgG was observed at 3.5 microg/g of sulfamerazine among nine kinds of sulfonamide tested. Pork tissues fortified with SMZ was mixed with octadecyl silica (C18), and extracted with dichloromethane. The extracted SMZ was measured by homemade ELISA, commercial ELISA, and HPLC. The results were correlated (r=0.993, p<0.01). The homemade ELISA was sensitive to determine SMZ at the maximum residue level (MRL) as commercial one. During stability test of the IgG coated microtiter plate performed at 40 degrees C for 14 days, no difference in sensitivity was observed. We developed homemade ELISA with a detection limit of 10 ng of SMZ per g of pork tissues, and it could be used to screen SMZ in pork tissues. 相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was modified for detection of antibodies against the two main pathogenic serotypes of Escherichia coli: serotypes O78:K80 and O2:K1. The ELISA was a more sensitive and repeatable test than the indirect hemagglutination test (IHT), which is a common method for detecting antibodies against E. coli. Cross-reactivity between the two strains was measured by reacting antisera of each serotype against homologous and heterologous antigens. The results suggest that aside from similar determinants expressed by the two serotypes, serotype O2:K1 expresses more strain-specific determinants than does O78:K80. Comparison of mean antibody titers of immunized chicks by IHT and ELISA along the primary response revealed that during the first 15 days after immunization with inactivated E. coli, the titers in both tests were parallel. After 15 days post-immunization, antibody titers measured by IHT decreased rapidly, whereas titers measured by ELISA decreased only slightly. In addition, a higher correlation was found between titers detected by ELISA and survival through challenge with E. coli than between titers detected with IHT and survival through challenge. The results suggest that the ELISA is a better test for detection of antibody in flocks suspected of being infected with E. coli. 相似文献
