Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for shigella toxin.

Abstract

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the detection of shigella toxin. For the assay, a mouse monoclonal antibody against the B subunit of the toxin and a rabbit polyclonal antibody against the holotoxin were employed. The monoclonal antibody was used to coat wells of a microtiter plate, and the polyclonal antibody preparation was used as the detecting antibody. The amount of bound polyclonal antibody was determined by using a goat anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G-alkaline phosphatase conjugate and substrate. The ELISA was able to detect as little as 12 pg (0.06 ng/ml) of shigella toxin. The assay was specific for shigella toxin, not detecting a variety of other bacterial enterotoxins and lethal toxins. The ELISA values correlated well with cytotoxin activity during toxin purification. Shigella toxin was detected by ELISA and by immunoblot analysis in human fecal specimens from persons with S. dysenteriae infections, demonstrating that this toxin is produced in vivo.
