Liquid-phase blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (LPBE) using the neutralizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) sandwich method (M-LPBE) for detection of Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) type O antibodies was developed. Two neutralizing mAbs, 72C1 and 65H6, were raised against the FMDV O/JPN/2000 strain, and used as trapping and peroxidase-labeled detecting antibodies, respectively. Sera from animals experimentally infected with FMDV showed specific positive results by M-LPBE, which were correlated with the results of the virus neutralization test (VNT). When 303 negative bovine and 302 negative swine sera were tested, the specificity of M-LPBE was 100% and 99.7%, respectively. In addition, nine samples that had been collected in 2000 in Japan and regarded as evidently false positives by LPBE (supplied by the World Reference Laboratory for Foot-and-Mouth Disease) were uniformly negative by M-LPBE, just like VNT. Therefore, M-LPBE seems to have sufficient specificity for FMDV type O antibody screening and diagnosis.

Cell culture underpins virus isolation and virus neutralisation tests, which are both gold-standard diagnostic methods for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD). Cell culture is also crucial for the propagation of inactivated foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) vaccines. Both primary cells and cell lines are utilised in FMDV isolation and propagation.

The accessibility of genetic data will facilitate a more comprehensive delineation of FMDV phylogeny on a global scale. In this study, we investigated the FMDV strains circulating in Russia during the 2013-2014 period in geographically distant regions utilizing whole genome sequencing followed by maximum-likelihood phylogenetic reconstruction of whole genome and VP1 gene sequences.

Background: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) causes significant economic losses, prompting vaccination as a primary control strategy. Virus-like particles (VLPs) have emerged as promising candidates for FMD vaccines but require adjuvants to enhance their immunogenicity. In this study, we evaluated the immunogenicity of a VLP-based vaccine with a water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsion adjuvant, named WT.

Introduction: An effective vaccination policy must be implemented to prevent foot-and-mouth disease (FMD). However, the currently used vaccines for FMD have several limitations, including induction of humoral rather than cellular immune responses.
Methods: To overcome these shortcomings, we assessed the efficacy of levamisole, a small-molecule immunomodulator, as an adjuvant for the FMD vaccine.

Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a highly contagious, economically important disease of livestock and wildlife species. Active monitoring and understanding the epidemiology of FMDV underpin the foundations of control programmes. In many endemic areas, however, veterinary resources are limited, resulting in a requirement for simple sampling techniques to increase and supplement surveillance efforts.
