| Abstract |
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious disease that affects cloven-hoofed animals and causes significant economic losses to husbandry worldwide. The variable domain of heavy-chain antibodies (VHHs or single domain antibodies, sdAbs) are single-domain antigen-binding fragments derived from camelid heavy-chain antibodies. In this work, two sdAbs against FMD virus (FMDV) serotype O were selected from a camelid phage display immune library and expressed in Escherichia coli. The serotype specificity and affinity of the sdAbs were identified through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and surface plasmon resonance assay. Moreover, the sdAbs were conjugated with quantum dots to constitute probes for imaging FMD virions. Results demonstrated that the two sdAbs were specific for serotype O and shared no cross-reactivity with serotypes A and Asia 1. The equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) values of the two sdAbs ranged from 6.23 nM to 8.24 nM, which indicated high affinity to FMDV antigens. Co-localization with the sdAb-AF488 and sdAb-QD probes indicated the same location of FMDV virions in baby hamster kidney-21 (BHK-21) cells. sdAb-QD probes are powerful tools to detect and image FMDV in BHK-21 cells. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 May 2015.
All research outputs
#18,411,569
of 22,807,037 outputs
Outputs from BMC Veterinary Research
#1,923
of 3,050 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#193,574
of 267,780 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Veterinary Research
#33
of 52 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,807,037 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,050 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.8. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 267,780 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 52 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
