    Notes: Summary.  Truncated proteins corresponding to the C-terminal half of VP1 of four vaccine strains and two field variants of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) were expressed in E. coli. The expressed proteins were affinity purified and their type specific reactivity was confirmed by immunoprecipitation with anti-virus antibodies. Antibodies were raised against the purified proteins in guinea pigs and the type specificity of the anti peptide antibodies was confirmed by antigen capture reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (Ag-RT/PCR) where the sera against a particular type captured the homologous virus. Antibodies were purified by immuno-affinity chromatography and tested for specificity by various serological tests. Using the purified proteins and the antibodies raised against them, tests like ELISA, Ag-RT/PCR, and latex agglutination test (LAT) were standardized. Application of the reagents in various tests was studied by screening a few field samples and by nucleotide sequencing. Specific reactivity of antibodies raised against expressed protein was seen with both vaccine virus and field samples. Thus E. coli expressed proteins and antibodies to them may form an alternative and cheap source of diagnostic reagents. The studies showed that antibodies against peptides were mono-specific and therefore may be used in LAT for rapid typing of FMDV and Ag-RT/PCR for typing ELISA negative field samples.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une enquête comparative a été réalisée sur l'application, la sensibilité et la spécificité de la contre-immunoélectrophorèse (CIEP) pour la détection rapide des anticorps du virus de la fièvre aphteuse dans les sérums de bovins en utilisant comme point de référence un test standard de neutralisation de sérum. On a conclu à la sensibilité et une spécificité raisonnable du test CIEP.
    Abstract: Resumen Se realizó una investigación conparativa sobre la aplicabilidad, sensibilidad y especificidad de la prueba de contrainmunoelectroforesis (CIEF), para la detección rápida de anticuerpos del virus de la fiebre aftosa en suero bovino, teniendo como referencia la prueba estandard de seroneutralización. La prueba de CIEF fue sensitiva, exhibiendo cierto grado de especificidad.
    Notes: Summary A comparative investigation was made on the applicability, sensitivity and specificity of counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIEP) for the rapid detection of antibody to foot-and-mouth disease virus in cattle sera using as reference a standard serum neutralisation test. The CIEP test was sensitive and exhibited a reasonable specificity.

    Notes: Hexokinase (B.C. 2.7.1.1) activity as a marker enzyme during FMD viral infection has been observed spectrophotometrically in a system coupled with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, in supernatants of BHK21Cl13 suspension as well as anchored cell culture at a minimum of 104 infective virus particles/ml. Specific activity increased with virus concentration in culture supernatants and abruptly decreased with a fall in virus titer, as has been noted by TCID/50,146 S concentration, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) readings.
