Abstrakt: Glaesserella parasuis (GPS) is an important bacterial pathogen of swine. Serotype identification has presented a bottleneck in GPS research since it was first identified as the pathogen causing Glässer's disease in pigs in 1910. This paper presents a systematic review of the history of the development and application of gel immunodiffusion (GID), indirect hemagglutination assay (IHA), and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) typing methods for GPS, and the discovery of their shared antigenic basis. It provides a systematic theoretical overview of the immunology and principles underlying the three typing methods and offers new ideas for research into the prevention and control of Glässer's disease. In 1992, GPS was first classified into serotypes 1-15 using GID based on GPS heat-stable antigens, but about 25% of the strains were found to be non-typeable, and the composition of their antigens for serotyping was unclear. In 2003, the IHA method was established based on saline-extracted antigens of GPS, whose sensitivity and typing rate were higher than for GID, although about 15% of strains were still found to be non-typeable. The results of IHA and GID typing are roughly consistent, since they share the same GPS surface polysaccharide serotyping antigens, although whether these are capsular polysaccharides, lipopolysaccharides, or other polysaccharides, remains to be determined. In 2013, the Capsular polysaccharide (CPS) synthetic gene clusters from GPS serotypes 1-15 were successfully analyzed, confirming that CPS is essential for the formation of antigens for serotyping. In 2015, primers were designed based on the specific target genes of GPS capsules to establish a PCR typing method (H-PCR) for GPS, which, however, could not identify serotypes 5 and 12. In 2017, a new PCR typing method (J-PCR) was established based on the specific target genes of GPS capsules, which could identify serotypes 5 and 12. A combination of the two PCR typing methods enables the typing of almost all GPS strains, and the consistency with GID and IHA was verified using molecular biological methods. The antigenic basis of the three typing methods was shown to involve the GPS capsule. PCR typing methods are characterized by simple operation, fast speed, and low cost, and can successfully solve many problems in GID and IHA serotyping, and so have become widely adopted.
