Abstract:
Objective Isolating and purifying the major allergens from Metapenaeus ensis and identifying its immunoreactivity for diagnostic application. Methods The proteins extracted from Metapenaeus ensis were purified by DEAE-52 ion-exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration. The eluted peaks were detected by dot-ELISA,and the immunoreactivity of the purified allergens was detected by ELISA with the sera from patients allergic to shrimp. The molecular weights of the purified allergic proteins were detected by SDS-PAGE. Results Two major allergic proteins which have highly immunoreactivity in ELISA detection were purified from Metapenaeus ensis. The molecular weights of which were 36 and 68kDa,respectively. Conclusion The major allergens of Metapenaeus ensis purified by ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration have effective immunoreactivity and can be used as specific antigen in ELISA reagent.
