Antibodies

Mab 26

Antibody type and class

IgG1

Assay System

ELISA, invitro opsonophagocytosis assay, immunoblotting, invivo protection studies

Cross-reactivity

This Mab cross-reacted with other 018 E. coli strains but were unreactive with heterologous 0 serotypes (e.g., 075 E. coli), E. coli J-5 Rc, Salmonella typhimurium Re rough mutants, or other gram-negative bacteria.

Proposed epitopes

The epitope was proposed to consist of the O-antigen

Proposed Utility

This Mab had invitro opsonophagocytic activity and showed complete protection in invivo models
