An effective vaccine against Edwardsiella tarda has not been reported, one of main reasons is the variation in its serotypes. This study aimed to develop an effective vaccine against different serotypes of E. tarda. A conserved 37 kDa outer membrane protein (OMP) of E. tarda was obtained by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). It showed comprising several proteins by two-dimensional (2D) PAGE analysis and showed a high similarity to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase by N-terminal amino acid sequence analysis. Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) vaccinated with the 37 kDa OMP was significantly protected against the infections by different serotypes of E. tarda. A specific antibody was also detected by using ELISA. This study suggests that the 37 kDa OMP is an effective potent vaccine candidate against different serotypes of E. tarda.

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.

D005393 Fish Diseases Diseases of freshwater, marine, hatchery or aquarium fish. This term includes diseases of both teleosts (true fish) and elasmobranchs (sharks, rays and skates). Disease, Fish,Diseases, Fish,Fish Disease
D005399 Fishes A group of cold-blooded, aquatic vertebrates having gills, fins, a cartilaginous or bony endoskeleton, and elongated bodies covered with scales.
D006041 Goats Any of numerous agile, hollow-horned RUMINANTS of the genus Capra, in the family Bovidae, closely related to the SHEEP. Capra,Capras,Goat
