摘要: An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed using a recombinant protein corresponding to the N'-terminal hydrophilic region of transmembrane glycoprotein (TM) ovine lentivirus. This reproducibly detected antibodies in sera from 207 212 progressive pneumonia (OPP) virus-infected sheep, and TM ELISA accurately identified 26% (35 vs. 9) more seropositive samples than did agar gel immunodiffusion test when applied 100 an infected flock. also yielded no false-positive results 14 true negative sera. Results these experiments were further confirmed by p25 Western blot assay. A single antigen, as coating antigen ELISA, can be used successfully for detection OPP animals improve sensitivity specificity diagnosis.
