Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV) are related emerging paramyxoviruses classified in the genus Henipavirus. Both cause fatal disease in animals and humans and are classified as biosafety level 4 pathogens. Here we detail two new multiplexed microsphere assays, one for antibody detection and differentiation and another designed as a surrogate for virus neutralization. Both assays utilize recombinant soluble attachment glycoproteins (sG) whereas the latter incorporates the cellular receptor, recombinant ephrin-B2. Spectrally distinct sG(HeV)- and sG(NiV)-coupled microspheres preferentially bound antibodies from HeV- and NiV-seropositive animals, demonstrating a simple procedure to differentiate antibodies to these closely related viruses. Soluble ephrin-B2 bound sG-coupled microspheres in a dose-dependent fashion. Specificity of binding was further evaluated with henipavirus G-specific sera and MAbs. Sera from henipavirus-seropositive animals differentially blocked ephrin-B2 binding, suggesting that detection and differentiation of HeV and NiV neutralizing antibodies can be done simultaneously in the absence of live virus.
