E.coli O157 (clone EBS-I-023), anti-E. coli O157

Source:
A BALB/c mouse was immunized with a crude sonicate of E. coli O157.
Fusion partner: NS-1.

Specifications:
EBS-I-023 Shows specificity to E.coli O157 in a simple ELISA. Escherichia coli are a Gram negative bacteria that are commonly found in the lower intestine of warm-blooded organisms (endotherms). Their serological types are determined in combination with somatic antigens (O group: O1-O173) and flagella antigens (H type: H1-H56). The E. colithat cause intestinal infectious diseases including diarrhea, acute gastritis or colitis are referred to as pathogenic E. coli, which are classified into the following 4 groups according to differences in the mode of pathogenicity; enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC), enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) and enterohemorrhagic E. coli(EHEC). Although the identification of pathogenic E. coli requires verification of their pathogenicity, pathogenic E. coli often have specific serotypes; therefore, typing of the serogroup and serotype is necessary in screening pathogenic E. coli.
