Abstract:

The penicillin allergy is being increasingly recognized as a significant public health problem. Immunological responses to penicillin and other beta-lactam antibiotics are classified as immediate and non-immediate responses. This research aimed to develop an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of the reactive antibody value against penicillin in various species of animals. The serum samples were collected from nine species (forty mature animals in each species) including horse, dog, goat, sheep, buffalo, cattle, donkey, chicken, and fish. The concentrations of total antibody and immunoglobulin M (IgM) against penicillin were detected using an in-house ELISA test. The total anti-penicillin antibodies concentration from high to low in animals was as chicken, horse, fish, donkey, dog, goat, sheep, buffalo, and cattle, respectively. In cattle and sheepthe level of anti-penicillin IgM (APM) was significantly higher than non-IgM antibodies (APNM); moreover, levels of APNM were very low in chicken and fish serums; no difference was seen regarding these values in buffalo and goat. The other species had significantly lower APM than the APNM. The ani-penicillin antibody levels in the noted animals were successfully detected using the developed ELISA. Most of the species have anti-penicillin antibodies; however, they have reactive antibodies with differences in levels and isotypes.

Adaptation of an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay by purified gp51SU for detection of antibodies to bovine leukemia virus

The objective of this study was to compare an indirect ELISA, based on a purified 60 kDa envelope glycoprotein (gp51SU), with a Pourquire indirect ELISA for the detection of antibodies to the bovine leukemia virus. For conducting this research, 340 serum samples were collected from two different breeds of cows (Sarabi and Holestin) in different herds. Commercial ELISA revealed positive results ...

Standardization of an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay for Detection of Infectious Bronchitis Virus Antibody.

An indirect enzyme–linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for screening of antibody to avian infectious bronchitis virus (IBV). Antigen was prepared from whole-purified IBV Massachusetts serotype (BR 801 strain). Optimum dilution with minimum background for antigen concentration, rabbit anti-chicken conjugate and sera in developed ELISA was determined 0.1μg/ml, 1:3000 and 1:100, respe...

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae antibodies.

The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) described by Engvall and Perlmann has been used for the detection of antibodies against Mycoplasma pneumoniae. These organisms, grown in flat-bottom wells of microtiter plates, were used as antigen. Preliminary results suggest that ELISA is specific and that its sensitivity is somewhere in between those of the metabolic inhibition and radioimmunopre...

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of streptolysin O antibodies.

An enzyme-linked immumosorbent assay (ELISA), based upon the detection of streptolysin O antibodies in human sera, was developed. Disposable polystyrene tubes, sensitized with streptolysin O antigen, were used as the test vehicles. Corresponding antibodies, present in test sera, were detected by binding of the antibodies to goat anti-human immunoglobulin G conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. ...

Application of a modified human enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit for diagnosis of hydatidosis in sheep

Cystic hydatid disease (hydatidosis) is one of the most important zoonosis that is caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus . As its diagnosis by clinical symptoms alone is difficult and confusing, serologic diagnostic techniques are used to confirm the disease. These techniques can also be used for   epidemiologic studies. The present study was performed with a commercial human en...
