Diagnosis of Trypanosoma evansi in bovines by indirect ELISA

Abstract: The diagnosis of Trypanosoma evansi in animals with low parasitaemia is hampered by low diagnostic sensitivity of traditional detection methods. The present study was undertaken with an objective to improve the diagnostic tools for detection of antibodies against T. evansi infection using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in bovines. The optimum concentration of antigen, test sera and conjugate were determined as 5 lg per well, 1:10 and 1: 6,000 dilutions, respectively. Among 320 cattle and 38… Show more

“…Different diagnostic methods were developed to diagnose T. evansi in the animals at the field level also (Sivajothi et al 2012;2013b;2014c). The variation of the antigen can cause development of variable severity of the infection and changes in the development of the symptoms.…”

“…Protein concentration of the WCL Ag of T. evansi prepared in the present study was estimated (60 mg/ml). Protein concentration was adjusted to 1.0 mg/ml in PBS, pH 8.0 and stored at -20°C in 1.0 ml aliquots (Sivajothi et al 2014c). Polypeptide profile of WCL of T. evansi was determined by SDS-PAGE as described by Laemmli (1970).…”

“…; Sivajothi et al . ). In our previous work, ELISA, IFM, gold‐based immunochromatographic strip assay and lanthanide‐labelled immunochromatographic strip testing, all based on polyclonal antibodies, were proposed and successfully used for the detection of ancient proteinous fibres and fabrics (Liu et al .…”
