Bovine herpesviruses 1 and 5 (BoHV-1 and BoHV-5) are economically important pathogens, associated with a variety of clinical syndromes, including respiratory and genital disease, reproductive failure and meningoencephalitis. The standard serological assay to diagnose BoHV-1 and BoHV-5 infections is the virus neutralization test (VNT), a time consuming procedure that requires manipulation of infectious virus. In the present study a highly sensitive and specific single dilution indirect ELISA was developed using recombinant glycoprotein D from BoHV-5 as antigen (rgD5ELISA). Bovine serum samples (n = 450) were screened by VNT against BoHV-5a and by rgD5ELISA. Compared with the VNT, the rgD5ELISA demonstrated accuracy of 99.8%, with 100% sensitivity, 96.7% specificity and coefficient of agreement between the tests of 0.954. The rgD5ELISA described here shows excellent agreement with the VNT and is shown to be a simple, convenient, specific and highly sensitive virus-free assay for detection of serum antibodies to BoHV-5.
牛疱疹病毒1型和5型(BoHV-1和BoHV-5)是具有重要经济意义的病原体,与多种临床综合征相关,包括呼吸道和生殖道疾病、生殖失败和脑膜脑炎。诊断BoHV-1和BoHV-5感染的标准血清学检测方法是病毒中和试验(VNT),这是一种耗时的程序,需要处理传染性病毒。在本研究中,使用来自BoHV-5的重组糖蛋白D作为抗原开发了一种高度敏感和特异的单稀释间接ELISA(rgD5ELISA)。用VNT检测针对BoHV-5a的牛血清样本(n = 450),并用rgD5ELISA进行检测。与VNT相比,rgD5ELISA的准确率为99.8%,灵敏度为100%,特异性为96.7%,两种检测方法之间的一致性系数为0.954。这里描述的rgD5ELISA与VNT显示出极好的一致性,并且被证明是一种用于检测牛血清中BoHV-5抗体的简单、方便、特异且高度敏感的无病毒检测方法。
