Abstract:
OBJECTIVESIn order to identify whether the hens immunized with recombinant human testis prostaglandin D synthase (rhtL-PGDS) DNA can produce anti-L-PGDS antibody.
METHODSThe serum were got from the hens immunized with recombinant plasmid pGEX-2T/htL-PGDS DNA (100 micrograms) every 2 weeks for 2 times. The exist of anti-L-PGDS antibody and its titer were tested with agarose dual immunodiffusion and ELISA with rhtL-PGDS as antigen.
RESULTSThe serum anti-L-PGDS antibody in hen immunized with pGEX-2T/htL-PGDS DNA were confirmed and its titer tested by ELISA was 1:2,048.
CONCLUSIONSIt is feasible to produce anti-L-PGDS antibody by immunizing hens with recombinant pGEX-2T/htL-PGES DNA.
