An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect antibodies to Salmonella typhi Vi antigen in human serum, and the results were compared with those from a previously described hemagglutination assay (HA). The ELISA detected Vi antibodies at a titer of greater than or equal to 20 in 40 (52%) of 77 sera from typhoid fever patients, whereas the HA gave titers of greater than or equal to 20 in 35 (47%). Determination of titers of serum specimens from 170 persons without typhoid fever revealed Vi antibody titers of greater than or equal to 20 in 4 (2.3%) by the ELISA and 3 (1.7%) by the HA. Unlike the sensitized erythrocytes used in the HA, the ELISA reagents have a shelf life of greater than or equal to 1 year. The ELISA may be preferred by some laboratories, especially those already performing other ELISA tests.
开发了一种酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)来检测人血清中针对伤寒杆菌Vi抗原的抗体,并将结果与先前描述的血凝试验(HA)的结果进行比较。ELISA在77份伤寒热患者血清中的40份(52%)中检测到效价大于或等于20的Vi抗体,而HA在35份(47%)中检测到效价大于或等于20的Vi抗体。对170名无伤寒热患者的血清标本进行效价测定,ELISA检测到4份(2.3%)效价大于或等于20的Vi抗体,HA检测到3份(1.7%)。与HA中使用的致敏红细胞不同,ELISA试剂的保质期大于或等于1年。一些实验室可能更喜欢使用ELISA,特别是那些已经在进行其他ELISA检测的实验室。
