Abstract

Mouse antiserum against immunoglobulin (Ig) of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was produced by using tilapia Ig/BSA complex. Tilapia anti-bovine serum albumin was produced first by peritoneal injection of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and then used for preparation of tilapia Ig/BSA complex by immunoprecipitation. The complex was then used for immunization into mice for production of mouse anti-tilapia Ig antiserum.  The mouse anti-tilapia Ig antiserum demonstrated high affinity on both heavy chain (78 kDa) and light chain (23 kDa) as determined by Western blotting, however, the mouse antiserum still contained antibodies that slightly  recognized BSA (60 kDa) and other components in tilapia serum as well. Therefore, further development of monoclonal antibody should be performed to obtain high specific antibody without limited quantity. Keywords : antiserum, Oreochromis niloticus, immunoglobulin, double immunodiffusion, Western blotting
