INTRODUCTION
Vaccination has been the main strategy to prevent and control Foot-and-mouth Disease
(FMD) in Korea since 2010 and three FMD vaccines containing various strains has been
routinely used under national vaccination program since 2019. Furthermore, three
commercial ELISA kits have been licensed for detection of antibodies against structural
proteins (SP) of FMDV (Foot-and-mouth Disease Virus) to estimate vaccine-induced
immunity. These include PrioCHECK SP Type-O ELISA, accredited internationally and
two domestic solid-phase ELISA kits coated with recombinant protein-based antigens,
the latter two of which were approved in 2020. Since these various factors were
involved, variability in serological test results owing to differences in the antigenic
specificity of tests according to the particular virus strains and antibody reagents
utilized in the tests may affect the reliability of serological results. Therefore, we
investigated diagnostic performances of three ELISAs used for sero-surveillance to
monitor vaccine coverage and assess herd immunity in cattle and pigs.
MATERIALS & METHODS
A total of three FMDV SP type O ELISA kits licensed in Korea (Table 1) were evaluated
using 1540 sera collected from pigs and cattle vaccinated with one of three FMD
vaccines as described below (Table 2). In addition, 153 sera from unvaccinated pigs
experimentally infected with FMDV O/SKR/BE/2017 or O/SKR/AS/2019 and 368
negative sera from unvaccinated and uninfected animals were tested too. Also,
neutralizing antibody (NA) titers were determined with virus neutralization tests (VNT)
against homologous virus strains.

The results of all test-kits demonstrated better detection rates of antibodies in sera from cattle vaccinated with
ARRIAH for bovine, whereas sera from pigs vaccinated with Bago resulted in higher detection rates of antibodies.
Also, two domestic kits yielded higher detection rates of antibodies than those of PrioCHECK kit except from pig sera
vaccinated with Bago. When compared to the results of VNT, ELISA kits tended to show lower detection rates of
antibodies than VNT in swine sera, while there was no significant difference between ELISA kits and VNT in bovine
sera.
* NA titer was measured against homologous strain used in vaccination (O Manisa for Merial vaccine, O Primorsky for
ARRIAH vaccine, O1 Campos for Bago vaccine). NA titers ≥16 were interpreted as positive.

Although specificities of PrioCHECK kit were higher than those of domestic kits, it was found that domestic kits
tended to show higher sensitivities, except the result of Bionote kit in the group of infected pigs. According to the
results of kappa values, all of three ELISA kits showed at least moderate agreement with VNT regardless of species
and vaccination against FMDV or infection with FMDV.

1) Only samples showing positive results in VNT (VNT titers≥16) were selected for DSe.
2) Negative sera from unvaccinated and uninfected animals and samples from vaccinated or infected animals giving
negative results in VNT (VNT titers<16) were selected for DSp.
3) Moderate agreement: 0.401~0.600, substantial agreement: 0.601~0.800, almost perfect agreement: 0.801~1.000
DISCUSSION
The results of three ELISAs demonstrated lower positivity rates to SP antibodies
compared to those of VNT against homologous vaccine strains in sera from vaccinated
or infected animals with FMDV type-O. However, the sensitivities of three ELISAs are
supposed to be less affected by the specificity of antigens used in that the results of
kappa values between ELISAs and VNT were identified as moderate or higher level of
agreement. Also, detection rates of two domestic kits tended to be higher than those of
PrioCHECK kit from samples in vaccinated animals, which reflected that various vaccines
in use and field strains from outbreaks in Korea were considered in development of
ELISA kits.

Fig. 1. Kinetics of antibody responses to FMDV type-O in sera from pigs infected
with FMDV type-O using three ELISA kits and VNT.
The results were generated from serial samples (1~19 dpc) in pigs infected with FMDV O/SKR/AS/2019 (a), (b) and
from serial samples (1~162 dpc) of pigs infected with FMDV O/SKR/BE/2017 (c), (d). The red dotted line on each
graph indicates cut-off values. PrioCHECK kit and Median kit detected seroconversion as early as 5~7 dpc, which is
equivalent to the results of VNT (4~5 dpc) and Bionote kit detected seroconversion slightly later (7~10 dpc).

* NA titer was measured against homologous strain used in vaccination. Antibody titers greater than 2.41 (log10256) were
considered as 2.71 (log10512) and antibody titers less than 1.20 (log1016) were considered as 1.00 (log1010).
