ELISA test was evaluated in 503 cultures of Vibrio cholerae O1 y 303 Non-O1. The cultures were isolated from sewage from different states of México between june 1991 and october 1992. The sensitivity was 100% and specificity was 96%. Only 12 strains of V. cholerae Non-O1 were positive for CT toxin. When these cultures were confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for cholera toxin, the results were negative. ELISA test is a good alternative to be used for toxin production in cultures of V. cholerae, it needs confirmation only with O1 negative and Non-O1 positive reactions.
对503株霍乱弧菌O1和303株非O1进行了酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)试验。这些菌株于1991年6月至1992年10月期间从墨西哥不同州的污水中分离得到。其敏感性为100%,特异性为96%。仅12株非O1霍乱弧菌的霍乱毒素(CT)检测呈阳性。当通过聚合酶链反应(PCR)对这些培养物进行霍乱毒素确认时,结果为阴性。ELISA试验是用于检测霍乱弧菌培养物中毒素产生的一种良好替代方法,仅需对O1阴性和非O1阳性反应进行确认。
