Research Abstract |
To diagnose bacterial infection, it is necessary to identify the causative bacteria as early as possible. However, conventional methods to identify bacteria by using culture methods takes at shortest 20-30 hours after obtaining clinical materials. To evaluate a recently developed highly sensitive bead-ELISA to be used for a tool for the rapid identification of the causative bacteria of enteric infection, we cooperate with Institute of Cholera and Enteric Diseases of India and applied the bead-ELISA for stool specimens of cholera patients. The results showed that the bead-ELISA for cholera toxin is a rapid and sensitive method to detect cholera toxin, thus to diagnose cholera patient. Bead-ELISA system was also developed by using a specific antigen and whole cell antigen to compylobacter jejuni. It was demonstrated that the a developed bead-ELISA is useful to identify Campylobacter jejuni. Thus an attempt will be made to develop a kit for identification of Campylobacter jejuni.
