We developed enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of rubella virus antigen, using two monoclonal antibodies, MC-7 and MC-22. The double antibody sandwich ELISA method was carefully standardized and found to be sensitive enough to detect as small as 2.5 ng protein of rubella virus. The infective titers by the double antibody sandwich ELISA closely related to those judged by interference of vesicular stomatitis virus in RK-13 cells. The method is simple, sensitive, and readily applicable to the detection of rubella virus.

D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
