Use of monoclonal antibodies to serotype Bordetella pertussis isolates: comparison of results obtained by indirect whole-cell enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and bacterial microagglutination methods.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sixty-one Bordetella pertussis isolates were tested blindly in two laboratories to determine their serotype nature by monoclonal antibodies using two independent methods: the standard bacterial microagglutination assay and an indirect whole-cell enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Both methods gave concordant results in 60 of the 61 isolates.

Foot and mouth disease (FMD) is a contagious animal disease that causes irreparable damage to the economy of countries, including Iran in which this disease is a native one. Among the ways to combat FMD are vaccination and slaughter. Due to the specific situation of Iran, it is not possible to kill infected animals. Therefore, vaccination is the most important way to fight this disease. S...
متن کاملProduction and characterization of monoclonal antibodies directed against Bordetella pertussis lipopolysaccharide.
Hybrid cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies against Bordetella pertussis lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were established. The specificity of the antibodies was ascertained by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and ELISA-inhibition experiments with LPS and delipidated polysaccharide fragments (PS-1 and PS-2) prepared from B. pertussis LPS. Monoclonal antibody 9-1-H5 reacted with B. pertus...
