This study aimed to evaluate the expression level of caseins during mastitis of goats. Whole goat caseins were used as primary antigens for mouse immunization. A monoclonal antibody (mAb) named 5B with high specificity to goat αs1-casein was developed. Further results showed that mAb 5B can successfully be applied to western blot and ELISA. In addition, immunoflorescence analysis using this mAb showed increased milk αs1-casein level in mastitis-affcted goats. In conclusion, this study has established an effctive tool to evaluate the expression level of αs1-casein during mastitis development.
Bu çalışma keçilerde mastitis sırasında kazein ekspresyon seviyesini değerlendirmeyi amaçlamıştır. Farelerde immünizasyon için birincil antijen olarak keçi kazeinleri kullanıldı. Keçi αs1-kazeine yüksek spesifite gösteren ve 5B olarak adlandırılan bir monoklonal antikor (mAb) geliştirildi. Sonuçlar mAb 5B’nin western blot ve ELISA’ya başarıyla uygulanabileceğini gösterdi. Ek olarak, geliştirilen mAb kullanılarak yapılan immünoflresan analizi, mastitisten etkilenen keçilerde süt αs1-kazein seviyesinin arttığını gösterdi. Sonuç olarak, bu çalışma ile mastitis gelişimi sırasında αs1-kazeinin ekspresyon seviyesini değerlendirmek için etkili bir faktör belirlenmiştir.
