The three resultant immunogens were fabricated and used to stimulate immune responses in rabbits to survey the characteristics of the haptens. Three of the resultant polyclonal antibodies (Pabs) were obtained. The antiserum exhibited relatively high antibody titres (1:32-64) in double agar diffusion.展开更多

We investigated the difference in immunological characteristics between a highly pathogenic and poorly pathogenic strain of Y. enterocolitico. Methods We used SDS-PAGE and western blotting to characterize lipopolysaccharide (LPS), Yersinio outer membrane proteins (Yops), membrane proteins, and whole-cell proteins from poorly pathogenic Y. enterocolitico bio-serotype 2/0:9, isolated from China, and highly pathogenic bio-serotype 1B/O:8, isolated from Japan. Results These two strains of Y. enterocolitica had different LPS immune response patterns. Comparison of their Yops also showed differences that could have accounted for their differences in pathogenicity. The membrane and whole-cell proteins of both strains were similar; immunoblottting showed that the 35 kD and perhaps the 10 kD proteins were immunogens in both strains. Conclusion The major antigens of the two strains e and membrane proteins, as shown by comparing preparations. citing the host immune protein samples with response were the LPS reference and purified展开更多
