Abstract:

An indirect ELISA for detecting the IgA antibody against porcine foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) type A was developed by using purified FMDV structural protein VP1 as coating antigen, mouse anti-pig IgA monoclonal antibody as second antibody and HRP-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG as third antibody.The concentration of coating antigen was optimized as 3.50 μg/mL,the dilution and reaction time of second antibody and third antibody were optimized as 1:10 000 and 30 min, respectively.There was no cross-reactivity with anti-CSFV, PRRSV and other pathogen specific IgA antibodies.The positive detection rate of FMDV type A infectedsamples was above 90%.The coefficient variation of intra-and inter-assay was ranged from 3.16% to 9.76%.The ELISA method described in this study was proved to be specific and rapid for the detection of FMDV specific IgA antibody.It was potential to be applied for detection the level of FMDV specific IgA and evaluate the effect of mucosal immunity.Besides,it provided a new method for clinical diagnosis of foot-and-mouth disease.
