Abstract:

Objective: To purify thermostable direct hemolysin (TDH) from the culture of Vibrio Parahaemolyticus and to establish western blotting method for determining pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Methods: The specific anti-serum was obtained from immune mice using TDH. The working concentration of serum samples was determined by chessboard assay. The specificities of pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus and non-pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus were also determined. Results: The working concentration of serum samples was 1:3200. The samples with clear dots were judged as the positive reaction. V. parahaemolyticus was positive in pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus, while non-pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus was negative. Conclusion: Western blotting can be used to detect pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus with the characteristics of high sensitivity, simple operation and eye-observable results.
