Research Abstract

1. Recombinant baculovirus expressing hantavirus nucleocapsid protein (Bac.HTN-NP) was applied for the antigen of ELISA.Specificity of the ELISA was the same to that of the IFA which uses infected Vero E6 cells as antigen. However, the ELISA had a sensitivity problem because of the relatively high background coloring.
2. cDNA which encoded hantavirus nucleocapsid protein was expressed by using E.coli system and established capture ELISA system. This ELISA was shown to have same specificity and sensitivity to that of the ordinally IFA,and therefore, considered as a useful screening method.
3. Bac.HTN-NP was successfully applied for the antigen for Western blotting (WB). The WB method readily distinguished specific reaction from nonspecific reaction from the WB pattern. Therefore, the WB was considered as an effective method for the serologic confirmation of hantavirus infection.
