A rapid, convenient, and sensitive enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for atriopeptin (AP) has been developed. The tracer-ligand for the assay is the 24-amino acid peptide, AP24, which has been covalently coupled to the tetrameric form of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) (EC 3.1.1.7). Tracer, unknown, and primary antibody are incubated in a 96-well microtiter plate precoated with secondary antibody. After washing, a colorimetric reaction is used to measure acetylcholinesterase activity. A direct linear correlation was obtained when comparing the conventional radioimmunoassay and the EIA by using the same primary antibody to assay: plasma samples (rat or human), HPLC column fractions, or atrial extracts. Besides being technically much less demanding and not requiring the use of the radioisotopes, the EIA is more sensitive than the radioimmunoassay and thereby lends itself to a "flash" same-day assay of samples.  相似文献

Enzyme immunoassay (EIA) in the rapid diagnosis of gonorrhoea   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The diagnostic value of a new, modified enzyme immunoassay (EIA) (Gonozyme; Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago III) was evaluated for the rapid antigenic detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in endocervical and urethral specimens. EIA results were compared with those of Gram stain (GS) and conventional culture tests. EIA sensitivity and specificity for male patients attending dermatovenerological clinic were 100% and 96.8% respectively in comparison to 86.7% and 96.8% obtained by Gram staining. For female Obstetrics-Gynaecology patients EIA sensitivity of 100% was highly significant compared to 50% sensitivity by the Gram stain. In culture, 30 strains of N. gonorrhoeae were isolated from 125 male specimens and 2 from 105 specimens from females; this suggests a prevalence of N. gonorrhoeae of 24% in males and 1.9% in females. In vitro antibiotic sensitivity testing indicated 55% resistance to penicillin and 43% to ampicillin in these isolated strains; all were sensitive to erythromycin/tetracycline. 12% of the strains were beta-lactamase producers.  相似文献

We evaluated two commercial enzyme immunoassay kits, Binax EIA (for detection of soluble antigen of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1) and Biotest EIA (for detection of antigens of Legionella pneumophila serogroups and other Legionella spp.) in order to introduce this test routinely for the diagnosis of Legionnaires' disease (LD) in our Laboratory. Frozen non-concentrated urine samples belonging to 45 patients with and without LD were tested. The sensitivity of Binax EIA and Biotest EIA was 47.4% and 42.1% respectively, the specificity was 95% by both tests. Biotest did not detect antigen from a patient with culture-proven infection of L. pneumophila serogroup 6. The detection of urinary antigen by both EIA tests is a useful tool for rapid diagnosis of LD, especially when samples are unavailable for culture; the sensitivity may be increased if the assay is performed on unfrozen and concentrated samples.  相似文献

Methods for the detection of viable rotaviruses and rotavirus antigen in water were developed and compared. The methods included laboratory-developed enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) with chromogenic and luminescent substrates, commercial Rotazyme and Enzygnost ELISAs, and an indirect immunofluorescent assay. Of the methods tested, the immunofluorescent assay and the Enzygnost ELISA were the most sensitive for the simian rotavirus SA-11. All of the methods were positive for human rotavirus from clinical specimens. Seeded SA-11 rotavirus was concentrated from water by absorption to and elution from Zeta Plus filters followed by organic flocculation. Interference with the assays by components of the wastewater concentrates was minimal for the ELISAs, although the undiluted organic flocs were cytotoxic for the immunofluorescent assay. A survey of Jerusalem wastewater was carried out over the course of 1 year, and samples were assayed for rotaviruses and enteroviruses. Although enteroviruses were found in almost all of the samples, all samples were negative for rotaviruses. The concentration of rotaviruses in the wastewater was thus below the detection limit of the method used.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of commercially available anti-HIV assays when testing plasma, urine and oral mucosal transudate (OMT) samples for the presence of antibodies to HIV. Homologous sets of plasma, urine and oral mucosal transudate specimens were collected from 288 hospitalized patients in northern Tanzania and tested for antibodies to HIV using a routine enzyme immunoassay (Recombinant 3rd Generation EIA, Abbott) and two rapid assays (Testpack HIV-1/HIV-2; Abbott and SUDS HIV-1, Murex). Incubation times and/or sample volumes when testing OMT or urine were increased as compared to those recommended for plasma. The corresponding plasma specimens from all repeatedly reactive samples and samples presenting discordant results were subjected to confirmational testing by an HIV-1/2 Western blot. A total of 15.3% (44/288) of the plasma samples were anti-HIV-1 positive by Western blot. The sensitivity using plasma was 100% by all assays, 69.7-97.7% using urine, and 92.7-100% using oral transudate specimens. The sensitivity of both rapid assays was excellent and higher than the EIA when testing OMT. Specificities ranged from 98.8-100% for plasma, 99-100% for urine and were 100% by all assays using oral samples. The results obtained using oral mucosal transudate specimens and rapid assays were at least comparable to those obtained with plasma, while the use of urine specimens produced suboptimal sensitivities with two of the three assays. The testing of alternative body fluids for antibodies to HIV is yet another strategy that may be applicable, particularly in developing countries.  相似文献

Six of the 23 college students who joined a group trip in February of 1991 developed acute nonbacterial gastroenteritis with severe diarrhea. The causal agent was identified as group C rotaviruses by electron microscopy (EM), immune-EM (IEM) and the molecular examinations including polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on virus particles detected in the extract of watery fecal specimens of the patients. The patients positive for virus isolation showed significant increase in IEM antibody to the isolated virus in their paired sera. These findings suggest that the group C rotavirus is an important etiological agent of diarrhea and may also cause serious food-borne diarrheal disease in adults.  相似文献

Background: Comparative field utility of selected HIV-1 assays using homologous collections of serum, urine and oral mucosal transudate (OMT) was determined in adult populations from a tuberculosis hospital and STD clinic in Djibouti, East Africa.Study design: Enzyme immunoassay with confirmatory Western blot was performed on all serum specimens for comparison with rapid, instrument-free assays (SUDS HIV-1, Murex; TestPack Abbott; and COMBAIDS HIV 1 + 2, SPAN Diagnostics) using various specimen sources. Delayed (48 h post-collection) testing was also performed on urine. Sensitivity and specificity for the rapid assays, in descending order, were as follows: serum SUDS HIV-1 assay (100%, 98.3%), serum COMBAIDS assay (98.4%, 99.6%), and OMT SUDS HIV-1 assay (98.4%, 94.5%).Results: The OMT EIA optical density cutoff value was modified resulting in an improved specificity from 89.1 to 99.6%; however, sensitivity decreased from 100 to 98.5%. Urine EIA and rapid assays demonstrated unacceptable test performance for use as a screening test.  相似文献

Mumps is an infectious disease caused by mumps virus (MuV), which belongs to the family Paramyxoviridae and genus Rubulavirus. Typical symptoms of mumps include fever and swelling of the parotid glands; however, mumps can be asymptomatic. Mumps is diagnosed by molecular and serological methods (i.e., PCR and Enzyme Immunoassay [EIA]); however, both methods have pros and cons. This study was performed to compare the diagnostic utility of a focus reduction neutralization test (FRNT) to that of MuV‐specific commercial IgM and IgG antibody EIA in patients suspected of having mumps. One hundred‐eighty six samples collected during mumps outbreak in 2012–16 were studied. Samples (n = 80) were tested by all the three serological assays and showed 70.4%, 83% and 92.5% positivity by IgM EIA, IgG and FRNT, respectively. In all, 58.8% samples (n = 47) tested positive in all three assays. Concordance between mumps RT‐PCR and IgM EIA was highest during the first 2–5 days and decreased with increasing time post‐onset. Mumps FRNT results agreed with those of RT‐PCR/IgM EIA from the second week onwards, whereas the results of mumps IgG EIA agreed with those of RT‐PCR/IgM EIA from post‐onset days 3–10. These findings suggest the utility of a FRNT for laboratory diagnosis of mumps in countries whose populations are not immunized against this infection.

A simple and highly sensitive enzyme immunoassay (EIA) was developed and validated for prolactin quantification in buffalo plasma (on a microtitreplate) using the biotin-streptavidin-peroxidase amplification and immobilized antiserum in a competitive assay. Prolactin standards (range: 5-5000 pg/(well 50 microL)) were prepared in hormone-free plasma collected from minimal stress non-lactating buffalo heifers in temperate weather. The sensitivity of the EIA procedure was 5 pg/(well 50 microL) (corresponds to 0.1 ng/mL plasma); the 50% relative binding sensitivity occurred at 160 ng/(well 50 microL). Plasma volumes for the EIA, viz. 12.5, 25, and 50 microL, did not influence the shape of standard curve. A parallelism test was carried out to compare the endogenous buffalo plasma prolactin with bovine prolactin standard. To validate the assay biologically, 11 Murrah buffaloes were given a third-generation antiprolactin (Norprolac; 10 mg/animal, i.m.). Blood samples were collected 1 d prior to the start of Norprolac administration and continued up to seventh day in an Ovsynch treatment program. In all animals, there were abrupt declines in prolactin concentrations following Norprolac treatments, which confirmed the biological validation of the EIA. After development and validation of EIA procedure, the concentration of plasma prolactin was determined efficiently in samples collected during both summer and winter samples.  相似文献

In May 1986, an outbreak of epidemic acute diarrhea occurred in one city and three counties in Yanbian area. The diarrheal cases were seen in all age groups, the majority of the cases were seen in adult age group. No bacterial pathogens were isolated in 22 fecal samples examined, however rotavirus like particles of 52-68 nm in diameter were found in 50% (11/22) of fecal samples by the immunoelectron microscopy using convalescent sera. Examination by the adult diarrhea rotavirus (ADRV) ELISA kit showed positive reaction in 86% (6/7) of fecal extracts, however in all 22 fecal extracts examination using ELISA kit for detection of group A rotavirus showed negative reaction. The PAGE patterns of viral RNAs similar to those of ADRV were seen in 13 out of 22 fecal extracts. The detection rate by PAGE analysis was 59%. Based on the above data, the etiological agent of the epidemic acute diarrhea, which occurred in Yanbian area, was identified to be ADRV.  相似文献

A sensitive enzyme immunoassay (EIA) was developed for human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) or urogastrone, which was isolated from human urine. Our EIA system is based on the sandwiching of an antigen between anti-hEGF IgG coated on a polystyrene tube and anti-hEGF antibody Fab'-linked beta-D-galactosidase (beta-D-galactosidase, EC 3.2.1.23). This method has the advantages that the procedures are simple and rapid and that the antibody Fab'-beta-D-galactosidase complex is more stable than radioisotope-labeled IgG. Purified hEGF is detectable at as low as 100 pg/ml, which is very sensitive compared to the radioimmuno-assays or radioreceptor assays already reported. Using this new EIA system, hEGF levels in human urine were examined. The values for normal males and females were 48.4 and 83.5 ng/mg creatinine, respectively, which shows that females excrete 1.7 times more hEGF than males.  相似文献

As an alternative to radioimmunoassays, a simple, highly sensitive and quick enzymeimmunoassay (EIA) for determination of 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGF(2alpha) (PGFM) in blood plasma of mithun (Bos frontalis; bovine) on microtitreplates using second antibody coating technique and PGFM-horseradish peroxidase as a label has been developed. The wells of the microtitreplate were coated with affinity-purified goat IgG (antirabbit IgG) that binds the hormone specific antibody. The EIA was carried out directly in 20microl plasma. The PGFM standard curve, with doses ranging from 0.1 to 50pg/well was linear. The sensitivity of the assay was 5pg/ml. PGFM standard curve in buffer showed parallelism with serially diluted mithun plasma containing high endogenous PGFM. Plasma PGFM concentrations estimated by using the developed EIA and commercially available PGFM EIA kit in the same samples were significantly correlated (r=0.98) and showed linearity. Intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation were below 7%. Recovery of known concentrations of added PGFM in charcoal stripped plasma was linear (r=0.99). The developed EIA was further validated biologically by estimating PGFM in cyclic cows for the entire estrous cycle and in peri-parturient cows beginning day 7 prior to calving till day 30 post-calving; the concentrations were along with the expected lines as reported in bovine. In conclusion, the EIA developed in this study is simple, highly sensitive, valid and sufficiently reliable method for estimation of PGFM directly in bovine plasma.  相似文献
