Abstract |
As compared with reaction of antibody for sonicated antigen of Brucella abortus strain RB51 and 1119-3 by Western blot analysis, Brucella field positive sera was detected strong reaction at 40~80 kDa LPS of strain 1119-3, but detected very weak reaction at strain RB51 partly. Otherwise, as we analyzed major immunogen of RB51 by antisera bled periodically during 6 months after RB51 vaccination. we detected strong immunological reaction at 17, 18 and 8 kDa antigen of RB51. Especially, reaction of 8 kDa antigen by Western blot coincided with reaction of dot-blot assay in RB51-antibody detection method. We also compared with reaction of field sera by STAT(standard tube agglutination test), dot-blot assay and Western blot (reaction of 8 kDa antigen of strain RB51). 16 sera of 4~5 months after RB51 vaccination are all negative by STAT, and 12 field brucellosis positive serum are all positive, and also 12 of 16 sera vaccinated RB51 are positive by dot-blot assay and reaction of 8kDa antigen by Western blot. but 1 of 15 Brucellosis negative sera reacted nonspecifically dot-blot assay. |
