  • Front
  • Back
Virus isolation
release virus from tissue sample, culture on appropriate cell line, observe for cytopathic effect
Direct Fluorescent Ab test
antiviral Ab labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate
Ab applied directly to frozen tissue, smears, cell culture. fluorescence under UV light=presence of viral Ag
Indirect fluorescent Ab test
sames FA
same as FA but 2-step procedure
1st Ab unlabeleds, 2nd Ab labeld with FITC
Indirect fluroescent characterisitc advantages
signal amplificaiton
Hemagglutination inhibition
some viruses hemagglutinate red blood cells (HA test)
Presence of AB inhibits hemagglutination
Hemagglutination Inhibition
Some viruses hemagllutinate red blood cells ( HA)
presence of antibody inhibits hemagglutination
Hemagglutination inhibition interpretation
presence of hemagglutination = presence of antibody
absence of hemagllutination = presence of antibody
Serum neutralization principle
Antibody in serum binds to virus. Ab-bound virus unable to infect cells.
Serum neutralization interpretation
absence of cpe = presence of Ab
Titer = highest dilution preventing cpe, if all cells destroyed, no Ag present
Enzyme linked immunosorbent Assay
color reaction if AB bound to plate
Agar gel immunodiffusion
line of precipitation formed with positive Ab.
AG in center well
Egg Inoculation
Chorioallantoic membrane (CAM
Yolk sac
allantoic sac
intravenous
negative contrast EM
sample homogenized
debris removed, virus pelleted
stained with phosphotungstic acid
