Abstract: An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay employing antisera against somatic antigen and outer membrane protein of a rough Aeromonas strain was developed for the detection of Aeromonas spp.The test detected Aeromonas irrespective of its species or serotype.The optimum detection level was found to be 10 6 /ml.The cross-reactions were observed only with Vibrio cholerae (O39) among the 15 different organisms belonging to Enterobacteriaceae, Vibrionaceae and a few Gram-positive pathogens tested.Preliminary trials on food samples revealed the test to be efficient in detecting Aeromonas spp.
