Modified enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detecting enteroinvasive Escherichia coli and virulent Shigella strains.
Immune sera were produced in rabbits with living cells of an enteroinvasive O143 strain of Escherichia coli. To remove O and K antibodies, sera were absorbed with an avirulent derivative of the same strain. In the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, absorbed sera reacted specifically with only virulent Shigella strains and enteroinvasive E. coli strains of different geographical origin, regardle...
متن کاملUse of Shigella flexneri ipaC and ipaH gene sequences for the general identification of Shigella spp. and enteroinvasive Escherichia coli.
The products of the ipaB, ipaC, and ipaD genes are involved in the expression of the invasive phenotype in all species of Shigella and enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC). DNA probes derived from these genes are accurate indicators of the invasive phenotype (M. Venkatesan, J. M. Buysse, E. V. Vandendries, and D. J. Kopecko, J. Clin. Microbiol. 26:261-266, 1988); however, spontaneous loss of ...
متن کاملSpecific detection of Shigella sonnei by enzyme-linked aptamer sedimentation assay
Development of potent new anti-Shigella agents for rapid and specific detection and treatment is of great importance. Aptamers, nucleic acid oligomers capable of specific binding to a wide range of non-nucleic acid targets, may be of value for this purpose. In the present study, we used a Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential enrichment (SELEX) process to select DNA aptamers that b...
متن کاملEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin.
The sensitivity of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect pure native Escherichia coli heat-stable toxin (ST) and to identify ST-producing strains among clinical isolates was determined. Two synthetically produced ST preparations were used to raise hyperimmune antisera in rabbits and goats: ST(S), which has the same antigenicity as native ST; and ST(C), which is 15-fold more imm...
متن کاملrapid and specific polymerase chain reaction-enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for detection of escherichia coli lt toxin from clinical isolates
methods this experimental study was conducted on iranian children communities from may to november 2014. forty stool samples were obtained from laboratories and investigated for heat-labile toxin (lt). specific primers were designed and the dig -labeled pcr products were bounded to streptavidin-coated wells of a microtiter plate and detected by anti-dig-peroxidase conjugate. an internal biotin-...
