The differentiation of viruses in the Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis complex by using monoclonal antibodies and lanthanide immunofluorescence analysis
1991
: Potentialities of differentiation between Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) complex viruses by time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay and enzyme immunoassay were studied. For this, 4 test systems were used based on different combinations of native and labeled polyclonal antibodies to VEE virus, strain Trinidad, and monoclonal (MCA) antibody MAK 14-7 to protein EL of this virus. The maximal sensitivity and specificity was achieved in the test system formed from native MCA MAK 14-7 for sensitization of the solid phase and labeled polyclonal immunoglobulins for demonstration of the test results. This combination of antibodies allowed to differentiate the epidemic variant of VEF/Trinidad (IA) from epizootic variants of Mucambo (III), Pixuna (IV) and attenuated strain No. 230.
