Abstract

The specificity of sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect Salmonella in milk was determined in this study. The antibodies used in sandwich ELISA were egg yolk immunoglobulin G (IgY) obtained after immunization of hen with outer membrane protein (OMP) fraction from Salmonella typhimurium and rabbit IgG obtained after immunization of rabbit with the purified OMP with the molecular weight of 40,000. The immunoblot assay showed that the IgY reacted strongly with OMP with the molecular weight of 6,000 and the rabbit IgG reacted strongly with OMP with the molecular weights of 40,000, 35,000, and 6,000 from the bacteria including Salmonella which belongs to Enterobacteriaceae. The IgY and rabbit IgG also reacted with other proteins from Salmonella typhimurium in immunoblot assay. Competitive ELISA showed that IgY showed specifity to react with two strains of Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella cholerasuis but not with Escherichia coli and Yersinia enterocolitica. Two strains of Salmonella typhimurium added to UHT milk showed the highest absorbance of all the bacteria used in the sandwich ELISA. Some strains of Salmonella cholerasuis showed higher absorbances than non-Salmonella bacteria.

우유내 Salmonella를 검출하기 위한 Sandwich ELISA의 특이성을 조사하였다. Sandwich ELISA에 사용한 항체들은 OMP 분획을 닭에 면역주사하여 얻은 IgY와 OMP 분획을 gel filtration하여 얻은 분자량 40,000의 OMP를 토끼에 면역 주사하여 얻은 토끼 IgG를 사용하였다. Immnoblot assay에서 IgY는 분자량 6,000의 OMP에 강하게 반응하였으며 토끼 IgG는 분자량 40,000, 35,000과 6,000의 OMP들에 강하게 반응하였다. IgY와 토끼 IgG는 Salmonella typhimurium의 다른 단백질에도 반응하였다. Competitive ELISA에서 IgY가 Salmonella의 두 개 균주에 대해 특이성을 나타냈으며 Eshcherchia coli와 Yersinia enterocolitica에 의하여서는 반응을 나타내지 않았다. 우유에 세균을 첨가하여 실시한 sandwich ELISA에서 Salmonella typhimurium 2균주가 가장 높은 흡광도를 보였다. Salmonella cholerasuis 균주들은 상대적으로 흡광도가 낮았으며 이루 일부 Salmonella cholerasuis 균주들은 비 Salmonella 균주들과 차이가 없었다.
