Serotyping Streptococcus suis using Multiplex PCR and Agglutination Tests

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The amplified products of S. suis serotypes 1 versus 14 and 2 versus 1/2 showed similar sizes by multiplex PCR (Fig. 2). Therefore, they were subsequently differentiated by slide agglutination combined with precipitation test. The antisera for testing serotype 1 and 2 were prepared in NIAH, Thailand [25 ], while the antiserum for serotype 14 was obtained from the Staten Serum Institute, Copenhagen, Denmark. Slide agglutination test was performed by mixing 1–2 colonies of S. suis with a drop of specific antiserum on a slide. Agglutination between the homologous antigen and antiserum should be observed. The precipitation test was performed in capillary tubes as described elsewhere [28 ]. Briefly, the microhematocrit tube (Vitrex Medical, Denmark) was dipped into the tube containing specific antiserum until the antisera filled up to 1 cm. Subsequently, the same volume of extracted antigen of the suspected S. suis serotype was also filled and the precipitation line was observed within 15 min.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
