Postweaning multisystemie wasting syndrome (PMWS) is an important swine disease that is closely associated with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2). The capsid protein (Cap protein) is a major structural protein that has at least three immunoreactive regions, and it can be a suitable candidate antigen for detecting the specific antibodies of a PCV2 infection. In the present study, an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (TcELISA)based on a truncated soluble Cap protein produced in Escherichia coli (E.coli) was established and validated for the diagnostic PCV2 antibodies in swine. The TcELISA was validated by comparison with an indirect immunofluorescence assay (IIFA). The diagnostic sensitivity (DSN), specificity (DSP), and accuracy of the TcELISA were 88.6%, 90.7% and 89.4%, respectively. The agreement rate was 89.38% between results obtained with TcELISA and IIFA on 113 field sera. A cross-reactivity assay showed that the method was PCV2-specific by comparison with other sera of viral disease. Therefore ,the TcELISA will be helpful for the development of a reliable serology diagnostic test for large scale detection of PCV2 antibodies and for the evaluation of vaccine against PCV2 in swine.

Eight mouse hybridoma cell lines which stably secreted monoclonal antibodies ( McAbs ) against human prostate-specific antigen-α1-antichymotrypsin complex ( PSA-ACT ) were obtained through hybridoma technique. After purification, the immunological characters of 8 McAbs were identified and classified by epitopes analysis through indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA) . A pair of McAbs was chosen from above 8 McAbs, based on which a highly sensitive, simple and rapid chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay ( CLEIA) was developed for determination of PSA-ACT in human serums using the lumino-H2 O2 reaction catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase ( HRP) as the chemiluminescence system. Several experiment factors such as coating buffer, coating concentration, dilution ratio of PSA-ACT-HRP complex, incubation time, immunoreaction protocol and chemiluminescence reaction time were optimized. The results showed that the linear range of the proposed method for PSA-ACT determination was 0-40 ng/mL (R2=0. 9943), with the detection limit of 0. 53 ng/mL. The inter-assay relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 4. 6%-6. 6%, and intra-assay RSDs were 5 . 7%-8 . 0%. The recoveries of PSA-ACT at three spiked levels in serum samples were 95. 4%-104. 2%. The proposed method exhibited a cross-reactivity of 0. 6% with free-PSA. The proposed method is stable, sensitive, rapid and simple, and provides a foundation for the development of PSA-ACT CLEIA kit and shows great value in clinical auxiliary diagnosis of prostate cancer.

Objective To explore the affect of acupuncture cooperating with Bobath approach on the spasticity after stroke.Methods 83 patient were divided into treatment group (42 cases) and control group (41 cases). On basis of conventional treatment, the treatment group accepted acupuncture and Bobath approach while the control group accepted a Bobath approach only. They were assessed with Modified Ashworth Scale before and 8 weeks after treatment. Results 8 weeks after treatment, the spasticity reduced in both groups, but more in the treatment group (P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture can facilitate the efficacy of Bobath approach on spasticity after stroke.
