    Abstract:
    An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been developed for the detection of Aeromonas hydrophila serogroup O:19 isolated from epizootics in eels. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay specificity was confirmed after testing A. hydrophila O:19 and non-O:19 strains from different origins, as well as other Aeromonas species and other fish pathogens such as Vibrio vulnificus biotype 2, V. furnisii, V. damsela, Yersinia ruckerii and Edwardsiella tarda. The detection limits for A. hydrophila O:19 cells were around 10(4)-10(5) cells/well. Artificially infected eels were analyzed and the immunodetection was confirmed by cultural methods. With this methodology A. hydrophila O:19 was successfully detected in infected eels and water samples. We described two subgroups within the serogroup O:19 (Guinée and Jansen system), one of them presents a 50 kDa outer membrane protein as a strong thermostable antigen which is not present in the other group.
