Swine were infected orally with pure cultures of Treponema hyodysenteriae, and the humoral antibody response was measured by a passive hemolysis test (passive hemagglutination test with the use of complement). Antibody to T. hyodysenteriae was detected as early as 1 week and later on at 4 months after exposure. However, peak serum titers were obtained after challenge at 4 weeks postinfection. The usefulness of the test as a potential diagnostic tool for antibody to T. hyodysenteriae is discussed.
用猪痢疾密螺旋体纯培养物经口感染猪,并通过被动溶血试验(使用补体的被动血凝试验)测定体液抗体反应。早在接触后1周就检测到了针对猪痢疾密螺旋体的抗体,之后在4个月时也检测到了。然而,在感染后4周进行攻毒后获得了血清滴度峰值。讨论了该试验作为猪痢疾密螺旋体抗体潜在诊断工具的实用性。
