Application of a blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for serological monitoring of hog cholera (classical swine fever) in Poland.

چکیده
Between 1990 and 1992, serum samples from 55,478 domestic swine were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the presence of hog cholera virus (HCV) antibodies. The amount of antibody in the sera was expressed as the mean percentage inhibition (PI). For diagnosis, the tested sera were diluted 1:2 and considered positive if the PI was less than 25%. Sera giving PI values in the range of 25-50% were retested against HCV and bovine virus diarrhoea virus (BVDV), by neutralising peroxidase-linked assay. Comparison of the serum titres obtained was used for serological diagnosis of hog cholera; the tested sera were considered negative for hog cholera if the titre for BVDV was higher than that obtained for HCV. All sera with a PI higher than 50% were considered negative for HCV and BVDV. All sera were found to be free of antibodies to HCV. BVDV antibodies were demonstrated in 0.40% of the sera tested in 1990, in 1.80% in 1991 and 1.06% in 1992.

Simplified serum neutralization test based on enhanced green fluorescent protein-tagged classical swine fever virus.
The neutralization immunofluorescence test (NIFT), currently used for detecting neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) against classical swine fever virus (CSFV), is time-consuming. Here, a simplified neutralization test based on enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-tagged CSFV (EGFP-NT) was developed for direct detection of anti-CSFV NAbs without immunostaining. The relative sensitivity and speci...
متن کاملClassical swine fever: the European experience and a guide for infected areas.
Classical swine fever (CSF) (hog cholera) virus infection is still of world-wide concern, either because of the direct effects of the disease on swine breeding in areas where the virus is epizootic or enzootic, or as a threat in areas where the virus has been eradicated. The authors provide an overview of the characteristics of the disease. Special emphasis is placed on the chronic form of dise...
متن کاملAntigenic properties and diagnostic potential of African swine fever virus protein pp62 expressed in insect cells.
African swine fever (ASF) is an infectious and economically important disease of domestic pigs. The absence of vaccine renders the diagnostic test the only tool that can be used for the control of new outbreaks of the disease. At present, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test is the most useful method for large-scale ASF serological studies, although false positives have been detec...

An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for a screening test to detect antibodies against classical swine fever virus (CSFV). Viral glycoproteins, which were purified from swine kidney cells infected with CSFV ALD/A76 strain by the immunoaffinity purification using monoclonal antibody against E2 protein, were adsorbed on a microtiter plate as the antigen for the anti...
