Abstract

An ELISPOT assay to enumerate B-cells producing antibodies specific to a given antigen, also known as an antibody secreting cell (ASC) assay, was adapted to detect B-cells specific for influenza A virus (IAV). The assay is performed ex vivo and enumerates ASC at a single cell level. A simple ASC detection method is based on a solid phase immunoenzymatic principle. The ELISPOT plate is coated with IAV prior to incubation with cell samples. The spot-forming cells are detected by enzyme labeled antibodies directed to the swine immunoglobulin (Ig) class of interest and visualized with the addition of substrate.
