Investigation on Antigen ELISA for Detection of the Envelope Glycoprotein Coded By ORF 149 of Different Koi Herpesvirus Isolates Obtained From Cell Cultures
Journal Title: Journal of Veterinary Science & Medicine - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
An antigen capture ELISA was established for cell culture materials using a monoclonal (mab) antibody 10A9 which recognized the product of KHV ORF 149. Five KHV isolates were replicated onto CCB cell cultures in six-well plates for eight days at 20 and at 26 °C incubation temperature. In the beginning, samples were taken from the different isolates at 1, 2, 4, and 6 hours post infection, afterwards one plate was collected per day. All samples were investigated by different PCRs and RT-PCR and by antigen ELISA. The results were compared. While the isolates replicated at 20 °C developed a two cycle replication at 1 dpi and a second between 4 and 5 dpi, the same isolates replicated at 26 °C developed only a single peak between 5 and 6 dpi. This could be shown on DNA level by qPCR and on protein/antigen level by ELISA, but not on RNA level.
