dye labelled monoclonal antibody assay for detection of toxic shock syndrome toxin -1 from staphylococcus aureus
نویسندگان
چکیده
objective : the aim of study was to develop a rapid assay, dye labelled monoclonal antibody assay (dlmaa), using non-radioactive organic synthetic dyes for identification of toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (tsst-1) producing strains of staphylococcus aureus. materials and methods: the assay protocol required only two simple steps; addition of tsst-1 antigen to a nitrocellulose membrane and then adding a colloidal dye labelled antibody (d/a) suspension detection reagent. results : the sensitivity and specificity of the assay was determined relative to positive and negative strains compared to an elisa assay. overall 100% agreement was found between both assays. the sensitivity for detection of tsst-1 was 30 ng. conclusion : the dlmaa did not require handling and disposal of radioactive materials. it is a rapid qualitative technique for detection of tsst-1 toxin at room temperature within a short time.

Staphylococcus aureus is a major causative pathogen of clinical and subclinical mastitis of dairy domestic ruminants. This agent produces a variety of extracellular toxins and virulence factors including Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1) which is the major cause of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). In this study 58 S. aureus isolates obtained from 9 dairy herds in East and West Azerbaijan provinc...

متن کاملOxygen and carbon dioxide regulation of toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 production by Staphylococcus aureus MN8.
The production of toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1) by Staphylococcus aureus MN8 exposed to a range of oxygen concentrations (0 to 21% [vol/vol]) was examined in batch and thin-film cultures. The response of S. aureus to this range of oxygen concentrations was studied in the absence and in the presence of 7% (vol/vol) carbon dioxide. In the absence of carbon dioxide, TSST-1 production in ba...
