Competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay based on monoclonal antibody and recombinant hemagglutinin for serosurveillance of rinderpest virus.

چکیده
A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (C-ELISA) which detects antibodies unique to rinderpest virus (RPV) has been developed. This test can differentiate antibodies against RPV and those against peste des petits ruminants virus. The recombinant RPV hemagglutinin (H)-protein C-ELISA (recH C-ELISA) is based on the ability of a well-characterized monoclonal antibody (MAb) produced with the soluble, secreted form of the H protein (Sec H protein) of RPV made in a baculovirus expression system to compete with the binding of RPV antibodies in the serum of vaccinated or infected, recovered animals to the Sec H protein. The B-cell epitope recognized by the MAb corresponds to amino acids 575 to 583 on the H protein, which is not present on the antigenically closely related peste des petits ruminants virus hemagglutinin-neuraminidase protein. Initially, a positive-negative threshold cutoff value for percent inhibition of 34 was established with 500 known RPV-negative serum samples. The recH C-ELISA was developed with the enzyme immunoassay software of a commercial RPV C-ELISA kit. Comparative analysis of the test results for 700 serum samples obtained with the commercial kit gave a sensitivity of 112.4% and a specificity of 72.4%. Variations in percent inhibition values were observed for the two assay systems. These variations may have been due to the undefined amount of antigen present in the commercial kit as well as the use of a different MAb. The recH C-ELISA detected more positive serum samples compared to the number detected by the commercial kit, with the results confirmed by a virus neutralization test. Thus, recH C-ELISA is a sensitive tool for RPV serosurveillance in disease eradication programs.

A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been standardised for the detection of antibodies to rinderpest virus in sera from cattle, sheep and goats. The test uses a neutralising monoclonal antibody (MAb) directed against the haemagglutinin protein of rinderpest virus. The test is specific for rinderpest, as it failed to detect antibodies to peste des petits ruminants virus in convale...

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of IgG antibodies against the pandemic H1N1 2009 influenza A virus, employing a recombinant hemagglutinin protein of the virus, was compared to the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test using 783 serum samples. The results showed a concordance of 98.4%, suggesting the utility of the ELISA in serosurveillance. Two hundred sixty-nine ...

Epitope-G1 of bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV) G glycoprotein has been genetically and antigenically conserved among various isolates of BEFV and only reacts with anti-BEFV neutralising antibodies. Therefore, it is a candidate antigen for development of the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for serological identification bovine ephemeral fever (BEF)-infected animals. The aim of this ...
