Introduction: Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) belonging to the Phenuiviridae family is responsible for a zoonotic disease called Rift Valley fever (RVF). Currently, RVFV has spread from Africa to Asia, and due to its ability to cause high mortality rates, it has significantly impacted human health and economic development in many societies. Highly specific and sensitive systems for sero-diagnosis of RVFV infection are needed for clinical use. Method: BALB/c mice were immunized with recombinant RVFV nucleocapsid (rRVFV-N) protein and the spleen cells fused with SP2/0 myeloma cells to create hybridoma cell lines. The secreted monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were purified and characterized. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) systems for the detection of IgG and IgM using the new MAbs were established and evaluated. Serum samples from 96 volunteers and 93 patients of suspected RVF from Kenya were tested compared with the ELISA systems based on inactivated viruses and the rabbit polyclonal antibody. Result: Three monoclonal antibodies against rRVFV-N protein were established. The performance of the MAb-based sandwich IgG ELISA and the IgM capture ELISA perfectly matched the ELISA systems using the inactivated virus or the polyclonal antibody. Conclusions: Recombinant RVFV-N protein-specific MAbs were developed and they offer useful tools for RVFV studies. The MAb-based ELISA systems for detecting IgG and IgM offer safe and useful options for diagnosing RVFV infections in humans. |
