Mab A

[edit] Antibody type and class

N/A

[edit] Assay System

Immunoblotting, ELISA, immunoaffinity chromatography, immunoprecipitation,

[edit] Cross-reactivity

This antibody was specific to Brucella abortus 2308 strain and did not cross-react with Brucella melitiensis 16M strain and Brucella abortus type 4 strains. It reacted with Brucella abortus 19 strain

[edit] Proposed epitopes

This mab was specific to the A epitope

[edit] Proposed Utility

This Mab would provide a tool to monitor the expression of LPS epitopes by Brucella spp. and determine the content of preparations intended for use in the control of brucellosis
