Comparison of a modified counterimmunoelectrophoresis test and a microimmunodiffusion test for detection of pseudorabies virus antibodies in porcine sera. 1984

P P Williams, and M F Coria, and E C Pirtle, and G A Erickson

The correlation of a modified counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIE) test and a microimmunodiffusion test for detecting pseudorabies virus antibodies in porcine sera was investigated, using as reference a standard virus neutralization test. The counterimmunoelectrophoresis test exhibited a sensitivity comparable to the microimmunodiffusion test but was not as sensitive as the virus neutralization test. The best feature of the modified counterimmunoelectrophoresis test is that it is a rapid test. It provides an alternative to currently used diagnostic tests for detection of pseudorabies virus antibodies in sera from field reared and experimentally reared swine exposed to pseudorabies virus.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007122 Immunoelectrophoresis A technique that combines protein electrophoresis and double immunodiffusion. In this procedure proteins are first separated by gel electrophoresis (usually agarose), then made visible by immunodiffusion of specific antibodies. A distinct elliptical precipitin arc results for each protein detectable by the antisera.
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).

D011558 Herpesvirus 1, Suid A species of VARICELLOVIRUS producing a respiratory infection (PSEUDORABIES) in swine, its natural host. It also produces an usually fatal ENCEPHALOMYELITIS in cattle, sheep, dogs, cats, foxes, and mink.

D003378 Counterimmunoelectrophoresis Immunoelectrophoresis in which immunoprecipitation occurs when antigen at the cathode is caused to migrate in an electric field through a suitable medium of diffusion against a stream of antibody migrating from the anode as a result of endosmotic flow.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013552 Swine Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail. Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).
