BACKGROUND: Japanese encephalitis (JE) is an important infectious disease in Taiwan, with reported cases observed all the year around. Laboratory tests for JE consist mainly of hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test and neutralization test (NT). Commercialized enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits for detection of JE-IgM are still not available. Therefore an attempt has been made to develop a sensitive and rapid ELISA for detection of the IgM antibody to JE to serve as an indication of recent Japanese encephalitis virus infection.
METHODS: Both positive and negative JE serum specimens, confirmed by HI test, were checked for IgM antibody to JE by ELISA. The optimum concentration of biotin-IgG and avidin horse-radish peroxidase conjugate used in MAC-ELISA were 1/2000 and 1/ 15000, respectively.
RESULTS: From 1987 to 1989, 118 paired serum specimens of HI-confirmed JE patients were tested for JE-IgM by ELISA. The positive rate of JE-IgM was 65.7% (25/38), 73.9% (17/23), 93.5% (29/31) and 88.8% (8/9) for the consecutive first to fourth weeks after onset of the disease. The JE-IgM antibody of 17 serum specimens collected from the 5th to the 10th week after onset of the disease were 100% detected. In addition, among the 13 HI-confirmed JE cases occurring in 1994, 84.6% of the acute phase serum specimens demonstrated the JE-IgM antibody.
CONCLUSIONS: About 65.7% of the JE-IgM of the acute serum specimens collected within one week after onset of the disease were detected. The JE-IgM positive rate elevated as the days from disease onset increased. Therefore the appearance of JE-IgM could be used as an indication of recent JEV infection to serve as a rapid laboratory diagnostic tool.
