中文摘要：

目的建立一种高度敏感和特异的人隐孢子虫的RT—PCR—ELISA检测方法。方法根据人隐孢子虫与其他恣孢子虫粘附蛋白p23基因的多重比对，设计一对引物（其中pl引物带有生物素标记）用来扩增含高变区目的片段；采用RT-PCR方法扩增目的片段，扩增产物与探针引物进行液相杂交，将杂交产物与微孔板上包被的链霉亲和素结合，再与辣根过氯化酶标记的抗地高辛抗体反应。用所建立的方法对22份临床样本进行检测，并与常规检测方法进行比较。结果所建立的RT—PCR-ELISA检测方法具有高特异性和敏感性，比常规的PCR方法灵敏度提高了100（0．08：8ng）左右。临床检测结果显示，该方法的检出率高达86％（19／22），而RT—PCR、蔗糖漂浮法和抗酸染色法的检出率仅为27％（6／ZZ）、27％（6／22）和50％（11／22）。结论本试验成功建立了人隐孢子虫的RT—PCR-ELISA检测方法，检出率比常规检测方法高。

英文摘要：

To establish a highly sensitive and specific method to detect the presence of Cryptosporidium homini, the RT-PCR-ELISA assay was tried, in which the primer with a biotin-labeled probe was designed to amplify fragment containing the highly variable region by multiple alignment between p23 gene of C, hominis and other Cryptosporidium spp. The RT-PCR was used to amplify the target fragment, and the amplified product was used to hybridize with the probe primer. The hybridized product was then captured on micro-plate wells coated with streptavidin and reacted with anti-digoxin antibody labeled with horse-radish peroxidase. This method of testing was then used for the detection of C. hominis in 22 clinical specimens and compared with the conventional methods of testing. It was demonstrated that the RT-PCR--ELISA for the detection of C. hominis was proved to be quite sensitive and specific. Its sensitivity was 100 times higher than that of the general PCR. From the result of clinic detection, the detection rate of RT-PCR-ELISA assay attained to 86 % （19/22）, while those of RT-PCR, sucrose floating method and anti-acid staining were 27%, 27% and 50% respectively. This result indicates that the RT-PCR-ELISA assay is more sensitive to detect C. hominis than the other three methods of testing.
