The invention discloses an
antigen for detecting a sheep
echinococcosis antibody and a preparation method of an
agar diffusion plate, and belongs to the technical field of biological detection. The preparation method of the
antigen comprises the following steps: performing
enzyme digestion connection on a sheep
echinococcosis EG95
protein nucleic acid sequence, and constructing the sheep
echinococcosis EG95
protein nucleic acid sequence on a
plasmid vector; then performing converting into
escherichia coli, constructing an expression strain, performing IPTG induced expression, and performing crushing to obtain an inclusion body; and performing washing,
cracking, centrifuging, purifying, dialyzing, concentrating, freeze-
drying, and diluting with PBS. The preparation method of the
agar diffusion plate comprises the following steps: adding water and PBS into
agarose, performing heating, adding
polyethylene glycol 6000, MES and
sodium chloride, performing cooling, performing
punching, and sealing the bottom. The
antigen and the
agar diffusion plate provided by the invention have the advantages of high sensitivity, strong specificity and strong universality, have good
biosafety, are easyfor large-scale production, are especially suitable for clinical detection of
sheep serum by grassroots veterinarians, and have wide popularization and application value.
