| Key features and details | |
| Cat. No. | MABL-2279 | 
| Name | Anti-LPS mAbs | 
| Clone No. | AFD- S20 | 
| From | Recombinant Antibody | 
| Isotype | Engineer antibody | 
| Application | neutralize, ELISA | 
| Species Reactivity | 06ad P. aeruginosa | 
| Basic Information | |
| Specificity | S20 binds to the polysaccharide (PS) portion of the lipopolysaccharide O side chain of a common pathogenic serogroup of P. aeruginosa, 06ad. The antibody also binds Fisher Devlin immunotype 1 P. aeruginosa, (considered part of the 06 serogroup) but there is no cross-reactivity with LPSs from other P. aeruginosa serotypes (strains IATS 011, IATS 016, 170003, and PAO1 Holloway). P. aeruginosa is a human pathogen, which poses a serious risk to individuals with weak immune systems. LPS is a serotypic marker present on the surface of the bacterium. | 
| Alternative Name | lipopolysaccharide; lipopolysaccharide O side chain | 
| UniProt | |
| Immunogen | Ig-inactivated transgenic mice possessing human heavy and light Igs (strain XMG2) were immunized with heat-killed 06ad P. aeruginosa. The supernatants from the derived hybridomas were screened for IgG mAb production against the 06ad high molecular weight LPS O-side-chain using ELISA. | 
| Application Notes | S20 human MAb is highly opsonic (complement-dependent) for the uptake and killing of live and heat-killed P. aeruginosa by fresh human PMN ( polymorphonuclear leukocytes). BALB/c mice rendered neutropenic challenged with 06ad P. aeruginosa saw 100% protection from mortality. S20 can also be used to detect 06ad LPS by ELISA. |
