Use of indirect immunofluorescence method for detection of rhinovirus-specific antibodies. 1981

J Hrusková, and V Strízová, and L Syrŭcek, and M Brûcková

Neutralization test and the method of indirect immunofluorescence were used to study the titre of specific antibodies in 32 paired serum samples taken from subjects naturally infected by varying RV serotypes [1A, 1B, 9, 12, 15, 16, 19, 23, 26, 29, 30, 31, 41, 47]. The IF method was positive in all the examined sera, the increase in the titre of rhinovirus-specific antibodies was mostly low and in 10 cases was the titre in both serum samples identical. The neutralization test turned out to be less sensitive in detecting specific antibodies. In serum samples from 13 examined subjects it failed to detect antibody presence in either of the two serum samples, in 15 subjects was recorded an increase in the titre of antibodies, but in some of them was only small, and the identical antibody titre in both serum samples was detected in 4 subjects.

D009500	Neutralization Tests	The measurement of infection-blocking titer of ANTISERA by testing a series of dilutions for a given virus-antiserum interaction end-point, which is generally the dilution at which tissue cultures inoculated with the serum-virus mixtures demonstrate cytopathology (CPE) or the dilution at which 50% of test animals injected with serum-virus mixtures show infectivity (ID50) or die (LD50).

D005455	Fluorescent Antibody Technique	Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
