[edit] Antibodies

Mab 865

[edit] Antibody type and class

IgM

[edit] Assay System

ELISA and immunoblotting

[edit] Cross-reactivity

This antibody cross-reacted with purified ECA from S.montevideo and to E. coli Rl and R4 LPS, cross-reacted well with the K5 capsular polysaccharide

[edit] Proposed epitopes

Epitope was proposed to contain 4-linked α-N-acetylglucosamine

[edit] Proposed Utility

This Mab may be used for the detection of ECA and K5 core structures but also for analysis of the molecular forms resolved on polyacrylamide gels (banding patterns)
