The objective of this research was to provide the characterization and method for producing anti-E. coli O157:H7 antibodies in egg-laying hens and to determine if the antibody can restrain the proliferation of E. coli O157:H7 in-vitro. Selected antigenic fractions (whole cell, outer membrane protein and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)) from E. coli O157:H7 were injected to hens in order to produce anti-E. coli O157:H7 antibodies. The immune response and the egg yolk antibodies of laying hens against the whole cell, outer membrane protein and LPS antigens were monitored by ELISA. The level of antibodies against whole cell antigen monitored through ELISA sharply increased after the initial immunization, and it was found to be maximum on day 49 however, the level was maintained up to day 70. Antibodies (5 mg/ml) directed against the whole cell inhibited E. coli proliferation 10-13 times more than outer membrane protein or LPS. The antibody response against the whole cell antigens appeared to have higher activity in restraining the proliferation of E. coli O157:H7 than antibody against outer membrane protein or LPS. Results reflected that increasing the IgY's in the egg yolk could prevent greater economic losses due to human and animal health from pathogenic bacteria i.e. E. coli O157:H7.

알러지 반응이 일어나면 histamine이 방출되기 때문에 histamine을 정량 측정함으로써 유발된 알러지의 정도를 확인 할 수 있다. 일반적으로는 항원-항체반응으로 microplate reader를 이용하여 흡광도를 측정하여 정량 한다. 본 연구에서는 histamine 방출량을 측정함에 있어서 일반적인 항원-항체반응과 분석 화학적인 방법으로 HPLC-MS를 이용한 방법을 비교하였다. 세포주는 RBL-2H3를 사용하였고, C48/80으로 자극시켜 알러지를 유발하였다. 유발된 알러지는 ${\beta}$-hexosaminidase의 측정으로 탈 과립을 확인하였으며 실험의 정당성을 위하여 세포독성 능을 확인하였다. Histamine 정량에서 항원-항체반응에 의한 측정의 정량한계는 10.257 ppm이었고, HPLC-MS에 의한 정량한계는 0.020 ppm으로 현저한 차이를 보였다. 알러지 활성 및 항 알러지 실험에 있어서 histamine의 측정은 HPLC-MS를 이용한 분석이 더 정밀하고 정확한 실험인 것을 확인하였다.

Twelve patients of localized juvenile periodontitis were evaluated to detection of serum IgG and IgM antibodies to Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans Y4 strain. Sera were isolated from those patients. Antibody titer of patients sera to Aa stran Y4 strain. Sera were isolated from those patients. Antibody titer of patients sera to Aa stran Y4 were determined by modified enzyme-linked immunosorbent assey (ELISA) using sonicated and formalin-fixed whole Aa y4 strain for detection of serum IgG and IgM antibody titers. To compare with health control and L.J.P., we used 12 healthy dental student who did not exhibited any gingivits. Results were determined by using ELISA reader at 400mm absorbance value. Data analysis were performed with comparison of the regression functions relating absorbance to dilution and Dunnett t-test. Significant high antibody titer to As Y4 in L.J.P. sera were shown in this examination(281. 4 Eu-G to 162.80 Eu-G, 106.0 Eu-M to 40.0 Eu-M for sonicated As Y4 antigen and 653.960. to 138.117 Eu-M for intact As Y4) and this data were also statistically significant (P<0.05). This work was supported in part from Seoul national University Hospital Grant and Korean Science Foundation.

Background: The feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, and panleukopenia (FVRCP) vaccine, prepared from viruses grown in the Crandell-Rees feline kidney cell line, can induce antibodies to cross-react with feline kidney tissues. Objectives: This study surveyed the prevalence of autoantibodies to feline kidney tissues and their association with the frequency of FVRCP vaccination. Methods: Serum samples and kidneys were collected from 156 live and 26 cadaveric cats. Antibodies that bind to kidney tissues and antibodies to the FVRCP antigen were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and kidney-bound antibody patterns were investigated by examining immunofluorescence. Proteins recognized by antibodies were identified by Western blot analysis. Results: The prevalences of autoantibodies that bind to kidney tissues in cats were 41% and 13% by ELISA and immunofluorescence, respectively. Kidney-bound antibodies were observed at interstitial cells, apical border, and cytoplasm of proximal and distal tubules; the antibodies were bound to proteins with molecular weights of 40, 47, 38, and 20 kDa. There was no direct link between vaccination and anti-kidney antibodies, but positive antibodies to kidney tissues were significantly associated with the anti-FVRCP antibody. The odds ratio or association in finding the autoantibody in cats with the antibody to FVRCP was 2.8 times higher than that in cats without the antibody to FVRCP. Conclusions: These preliminary results demonstrate an association between anti-FVRCP and anti-cat kidney tissues. However, an increase in the risk of inducing kidney-bound antibodies by repeat vaccinations could not be shown directly. It will be interesting to expand the sample size and follow-up on whether these autoantibodies can lead to kidney function impairment.

These experiments were carried out to clarify the optimalconditions and interspecific cross reaction of H-Y antibody activity. H-Y antiserum was prepared in inbred SD female rats and Balb/c female mice by repeated immunization of rat newborn testis homogemate, rat and mouse spleen cells obtained from males of same strain. The activity of H-Y antibody in antiserum was tested by ELISA and biological tests. The cross reactivity of H-Y antibody was confirmed by culturing mouse and rabbit embryos in medium containing H-Y antibody and complement obtained from rat and guinea pig, respectively. The optimal condition for the activity of H-Y antibody was also investigated by culturing embryos in medium with different pH and complement concentration. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows: 1. The formation rates of H-Y antibody in rats immunized with newborn testis and spleen cell were 40.0 and 50.0% respectively, and that in mouse immunized with spleen cell was 48.4%. 2. The activity of H-Y antibody was not affected by pH in range of 6.5 to 8.0, and the same was true for the relative concentration of complement to the H-Y antibody. 3. Minimum time needed for the activity of H-Y antibody was confirmed to be 0.5 to 1 hour and 24 to 48 hours respectively for the zona free embryos and intact embryos. 4. When mouse and rabbit embryos were treated with H-Y antibody obtained from rat, 46.4 and 54.8% of embryos were retarded or destroyed. From these results it could be said that H-Y antibody had strong interspecific cross reactivity.

Among the various receptor molecules discovered so far the ${\beta}$2-adrenergic receptors have been regarded as excellent model systems for the so called 7 transmembrane helix receptor and have been the focus of extensive studies. For the analysis of receptor structure and function a monoclonal antibody plays a crucial role, thus providing useful tools for the study of receptor. However, because of the minute quantity of receptor molecules which could be obtained from natural sources, the generation of specific monoclonal antibody against receptor molecules from the purified receptors has been regarded as virtually impractical in consideration of cost and experimental times. The purpose of the present study was to generate and characterize a monoclonal antibody against human ${\beta}$2-adrenergic receptor. For the production of antibody, C-terminal regions of the human ${\beta}$2-adrenergic receptor was produced as a fusion protein with Glutathion S-transferase (GST) in E. Coli. The expression of the fusion protein was identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot using monoclonal anti-GST antibody. The fusion protein was purified to an apparent homogeniety by affinity chromatography with Glutathion Sepharose CL-4B and used as an antigen for the immunization of BALB/C mice. The Production of monoclonal antibody was achieved by fusion of the immunized spleen cells and SP/2-0 myeloma cells. Positive hybridomas were screened by ELISA and were cloned by two consecutive rounds of limiting dilution. The monoclonal antibody produced in this study (mAb${\beta}$C02) was IgM type and purified by immunoaffinity chromatography using anti-mouse IgM agarose as an affinity matrix. MAb${\beta}$C02 showed strong and specific immunoreactivity against both the fusion protein and human ${\beta}$2-adrenergic receptor in ELISA and Western blot. The molecular weight of immunoreactive band was 64 kDa and exactly coincided with the previously reported molecular weight of ${\beta}$2-adrenergic recepters. The results of the present study suggest that mAb${\beta}$C02 may be used for the study of receptor function and regulation in normal or nonphysiological status.

We investigated the sero-prevalence of toxocariasis among healthy Korean adults in 1999. A total of 314 sera from normal inhabitants in Whachon-gun, Gangwon do, Korea was examined for specific antibody levels against excretory-secretory products of second stage larvae of Toxocara (TES). The presence of cross-reactions with other helminthiases such as cysticercosis, paragonimiasis, sparganosis or clonorchiasis was also checked by specific IgG ELISA. Sera showing positive reaction against TES were also tested by IgG immunoblot and by IgE ELISA. Out of 314 subjects, 16 was found to be positive by TES IgG ELISA and immunoblot, among whom 12 were also positive by TES IgE ELISA. Among the 16 seropositive samples, two sera showed positive reaction against Paragonimus and sparganum antigen, respectively. These results inferred that cross-reactions were negligible between toxocariasis and other helminthiases. Toxocariasis seroprevalence among Korean rural adults was detected to be approximately 5%.

Enzyme-linked Immuno sorbent Assay (ELISA) for the serological diagnosis of Brucella abortus was developed and compared with plate agglutination test. Cell wall antigen was extracted from Brucella abortus 1119-3 by sonication and with a sodium deoxychlate solution. Optimum protein concentration of coating antigen were $0.4{\mu}g/100{\mu}{\ell}$ protein on each microtiter plate well. Horse radish peroxidase (HRP) labeled protein-G was used as a tracer of reacted antibodies. ELISA confirmed the agreeable results of 40 cases out of 43 cases by plate aggulutination test. ELISA diagnosed positive cases(10 out of 12) and negative cases (1 out of 12) with dubious sera by plate agglutination test. From this results ELISA could be used for the early diagnostic tools of Brucellosis in cattle.
