[edit] Carbohydrate Class

Miscellaneous

[edit] Source Microbe

Eubacterium saburreum strain T18

[edit] Basic Structure

This antigen was composed of D-glycero-D-galacto-heptose

[edit] Proposed functions

N/A

[edit] Antigenic Nature used to produce antibodies

Whole cells

[edit] Carrier Name

nil

[edit] Conjugation Method

nil

[edit] Antibodies

Antisera

[edit] Antibody type and class

IgM

[edit] Assay System

immunoprecipitation, immunodiffusion

[edit] Cross-reactivity

This antisera was specific to T18 antigen and did not cross-react with L44 antigen and T27 antigen

[edit] Proposed epitopes

D-glycero-D-galacto-heptose constitutes part of the immunodeterminant of the antigenic polysaccharide

[edit] Proposed Utility

The polysaccharide antigen from strain T18 is distinct from those previously reported for this species and may be useful in serotyping E. saburreum
