Abstract:

This study was aimed to establish a Bovine IFN-γ Release Method in vitro,which could provide a new,rapid,effective detection technology for the immunological diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis.The bovine IFN-γ release method based on the double antibody sandwich ELISA (DAS-ELISA) was established,in which,Bo-mAb1 against bovine IFN-γ was used as the capture antibody and HRP-labeled Bo-mAb2H as the detection antibody.Our results showed that the detection limit of this ELISA was 3.12 ng•mL-1.This method could specifically detect bovine IFN-γ both from blood plasma and recombinant protein,showing no cross-reaction with porcine,canine as well as chicken IFN-γ.The intra-assay and inter-assay coefficient of variability were both within 5.11%.When compared with the tuberculin skin test,and the BovigamTM kit,our preliminary clinical results showed that the coincidence rate was 88.7% and 95.3%,respectively.As a result,a conclusion can be made that this DAS-ELISA method shows good sensitivity,specificity and accuracy,and could apply to processing large quantities of clinical samples.Our research contributes to the early detection of bovine tuberculosis.
