Abstract: 【Objective】 The immunological characteristics of the carbohydrate antigen (glycoprotein) of E. granulosus adult surface membrane were explored in this study . 【Method】 The freez-thaw E. granulosus adult worm lysis was digested by protease K, and centrifuged to collect supernatant as crude glycoantigen materials, which was identified by SDS-PAGE, quantified by sulfuric acid anthrone method. Then, the Balb/c mice were injected hypodermically by the material six times for anti-serum, which was collected to measure immunoglobulin (IgG, IgM and IgA) by ELISA, and to determine the specificity by western- blot method. To localize the site of the antigen composition in the E. granulosus adult worm by IFA. 【Result】 The SDS-PAGE showed that there was no visible band on the gel. This suggested that the proteins of the parasite surface membrane were degraded completely. The concentration of glycoantige was 2.54mg•mL-1 in the preparation. ELISA showed that the specific antibodies (IgG, IgM, and IgA) were rised gradually with the increase of the immunization times, and the positive/negative ration (P/N) of IgG, IgM and IgA equals to 4.9, 3.2 and 6.4, respectively. Comparatively, the specific IgE was not detected. Western blotting showed that the E. granulosus adult worm surface membrane glycoantigen and native proteins could be recognized by the anti-serum. IFA proved that the glycoantigen was located on the surface membrane of E. granulosus adult worm. 【Conclusion】 The glycoantigen of E. granulosus adult worms digested proteinase K has good immunogenicity and reactivity, and could be used to develop vaccine candidates and diagnosis material.
