Seroreactivity of somatic soluble proteins of Vibrio alginolyticus
132 / 102
Abstract
Serological characterization of V. alginolyticus was performed which might be quite useful in adopting immunodiagnostic approaches to detect vibriosis in shrimp. The sero-reactivity of V. alginolyticus soluble somatic protein antigen was assessed by agar gel precipitation test (AGPT), counter currentimmunoelectrophoresis and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using hyperimmune serum against V.alginolyticus, raised in rabbit. SDS-PAGE analysis revealed 21 polypeptides in the range of 15 to 103 kDa in V.alginolyticus somatic soluble antigen preperation. No cross-reactivity of
V.alginolyticus soluble protein antigen was noted with related pathogens, viz. V.harveyi, V. fluvialis and Pseudomonas sp. when counter current immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) was performed. From the present study, it was concluded that seroreactivity exists in V.alginolyticus somatic soluble proteins
that might be exploited in diagnosis of vibriosis in shrimp
