Caracterização de anticorpos monoclonais contra rotavírus bovino e suas aplicações como ferramenta de diagnóstico
2007
This work was carried out to characterize and evaluate five bovine rotavirus, monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), as a diagnosis tool, by isotyping, dot-blot, western-blot, indirect immunofluorescence (IFI) and ELISA techniques. The immunochemistry characterization showed that all five MAbs (4F7, 4F3, 1G5, 1E12 and 3C12) were IgG2a isotype. The dot-blot immunoassay showed that 1G5, 4F7, 1E12 and 4F3 detected viral antigen in different concentrations and two MAbs (1E12 and 4F3) recognized viral proteins by western-blot. All MAbs detected viral antigen in bovine and human fecal samples by capture ELISA technique and viral antigen in infected MA-104 cell culture by IFI. In conclusion, two groups of Mabs were indetified: one with Mabs 4F7, 1E12 and 1G5 showed the best results to detect rotavirus antigen in fecal samples by capture ELISA or dot-blot techniques assay and other with 4F3 and 3C12 which may be used to detect rotavirus antigens in cell culture by IFI. The results showed the potential use of these MAbs as diagnosis tools in diarrheas by rotavirus in bovines.
