An antigen-capture ELISA for viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus serotype I (VHSV I) was developed. The assay employs two monoclonal antibodies (mAb) directed against distinct epitopes of the viral envelope glycoprotein (Gp). The antigen bound by the capture mAb (A17) was detected by addition of a second mAb (L7) conjugated to horseradish peroxidase, followed by addition of the enzyme substrate. The technique is highly sensitive, enabling detection of the virus at a protein concentration as low as 1 ng/ml of total proteins (1.5 fmol of envelope Gp per ml) in purified preparations. VHSV I was also detected in culture supernatants (5 x 10(5) PFU/ml) and in extracts of kidney and spleen of rainbow trout infected experimentally (5 x 10(5) PFU/ml). The assay was highly specific: infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus, infectious pancreatic necrosis virus, spring viraemia of carp virus, pike fry rhabdovirus, eel rhabdovirus and perch rhabdovirus could not be detected by the antigen-capture ELISA for VHSV I.
