Abstract

Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is responsible for a highly contagious disease of poultry causing severe immunosuppression in chickens. A double antibody sandwich ELISA (DAS-ELISA) was developed to detect IBDV from clinical samples. Two kinds of anti-IBDV antibodies, monoclonal antibody R63 and chicken anti-IBDV sera, were used for DAS-ELISA. Detection limit of IBDV by DAS-ELISA was approximately 10 2.7 EID??/㎖. The DAS-ELISA detected IBDV from most (13/14) of vaccine products including mild, intermediate and intermediate-plus types. The DAS-ELISA also detected IBDV from all (19/19) of field Korean isolates including very virulent and intermediate-plus phenotypes. Our results indicate that the DAS-ELISA would provide useful diagnostic tool to detect IBDV from clinical samples as well as rapid quantitative detection of IBDV.
