A one-tube reverse transcriptase/polymerase chain reaction coupled with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (RT-PCR-ELISA) was developed for the rapid detection of avian influenza virus (AIV) in clinical specimens. A total of 419 swab pools were analyzed from chickens experimentally infected with low-pathogenicity AIV, from wild aquatic birds, and from domestic ducks. The AIV was detected in 32 swab pools by RT-PCR-ELISA compared to 23 by virus isolation (VI) in embryonated specific pathogen free (SPF) chicken eggs. Thus, 39% more specimens were positive by RT-PCR-ELISA than by VI. Two of the twenty-three VI-positive specimens were negative when tested by RT-PCR-ELISA. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the RT-PCR-ELISA was 91% and 97%, respectively, using VI in SPF eggs as the gold reference standard.
开发了一种单管逆转录酶/聚合酶链反应与酶联免疫吸附测定相结合的方法(RT-PCR-ELISA),用于快速检测临床样本中的禽流感病毒(AIV)。对419份拭子样本池进行了分析,这些样本来自实验感染低致病性AIV的鸡、野生水鸟和家鸭。通过RT-PCR-ELISA在32份拭子样本池中检测到AIV,相比之下,在无特定病原体(SPF)的鸡胚中通过病毒分离(VI)检测到23份。因此,RT-PCR-ELISA检测出阳性的样本比VI多39%。23份VI阳性样本中有两份在通过RT-PCR-ELISA检测时呈阴性。以SPF鸡胚中的VI作为金标准参考,RT-PCR-ELISA的诊断敏感性和特异性分别为91%和97%。
