A serodiagnostic ELISA utilizing the recombinant nucleoprotein (rN protein) of transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) was developed, and evaluated by examining a panel of 141 virus neutralization (VN) positive and 101 negative sera. The rN protein-based ELISA (rnELISA) appeared to be highly sensitive and specific (98.6% and 98.0%, respectively) when it was compared to the VN test. The result was similar to that of an ELISA based on purified viral antigens with showing good correlation (R=0.829). No cross-reaction was detected with antisera against porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, hog cholera virus, type A rotavirus, pseudorabies virus and swine vesicular disease virus in this ELISA. The rnELISA can be an alternative for the diagnosis of TGE with a great advantage in antigen preparation.
利用传染性胃肠炎病毒(TGEV)的重组核蛋白(rN蛋白)开发了一种血清诊断ELISA,并通过检测一组141份病毒中和(VN)阳性血清和101份阴性血清进行评估。与VN试验相比,基于rN蛋白的ELISA(rnELISA)似乎具有高度敏感性和特异性(分别为98.6%和98.0%)。结果与基于纯化病毒抗原的ELISA相似,显示出良好的相关性(R=0.829)。该ELISA未检测到与抗猪流行性腹泻病毒、猪霍乱病毒、A型轮状病毒、伪狂犬病病毒和猪水疱病病毒的抗血清发生交叉反应。rnELISA可作为TGE诊断的替代方法,在抗原制备方面具有很大优势。
