“…A similar result was obtained using the bacterial suspension, in which the strip could detect the bacteria at 10 7 cfu/ml, which is equivalent of a sensitivity 10 times lower than dot blotting (10 6 cfu/ml, Figures and ). In strip tests for the detection of V. cholerae O1 (Chaivisuthangkura, Pengsuk, Longyant, & Sithigorngul, ) and V. cholerae O139 (Pengsuk, Chaivisuthangkura, Longyant, & Sithigorngul, ), the detection limit was similar or better than the dot blot method. Therefore, it is hoped that we can increase the sensitivity of the strip to match or outperform the sensitivity of the dot blot method by producing high‐sensitivity MAbs that bind to far distant epitopes on the antigen (Sithigorngul, Rukpratanporn, Chaivisuthangkura, Sridulyakul, & Longyant, ; Wangman, Siriwattanarat, et al, ).…”
