ABSTRACT

Serological response against listeriolysin in cattle of Vidarbha region was studied using indirect enzyme linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA). Highly purified listeriolysin O (LLO), an essential virulent factor of L. monocytogenes, was used as an antigen. Out of a total of 929 serum samples tested by ELISA, 51 (5.48%) were found to be seropositive. The occurrence of anti-LLO antibodies in apparently healthy animals is of significance.

Keywords: Anti-LLO antibodies, cattle, ELISA.
