[edit] Antibody type and class

IgG1

[edit] Assay System

Whole cell agglutination, immunodiffusion, immunoblotting and ELISA

[edit] Cross-reactivity

This Mab agglutinated Yersinia and Brucella abortus cells and had high ELISA titers, but which failed to precipitate the polysaccharide antigens

[edit] Proposed epitopes

The epitope was proposed to be Terminal nonreducing portions of the O-chain

[edit] Proposed Utility

This Mab can be used to study the cell wall polysaccharide antigens of other Y. enterocolitica strains and are being evaluated for specific serological identification of B. abortus.
