[ Method] The expressed and purified FAVI penton recombinant protein was used to be an antigen, optimized the reaction conditions, and then estab- lished the FAVI indirect penton-ELISA antibody detection method. [ Result] The optimal coating concentration of antigen was 1.5 μg/hole, the opti- mal coating condition was 37℃ 2 h and 4 ℃ overnight; the optimal dilution of serum was 1：100; the optimal working concentration of anti-chicken IgG-HRP was 1：2 000; the positive and negative critical value of ELISA was 0.335. Detected the 100 chicken serum samples by the established penton-ELISA method, the positive rate was 41%. [ Conclusion] Through the study, ~e established penton-ELISA method has a good specificity, sensitivity and reproducibility. And it offers an effective tool for the diagnosis of FAVI, the survey of antibody and epidemiology survey.展开更多
