Basic Information | |
Specificity | This S. pneumoniae serogroup 6-specific antibody binds to serogroup 6B capsular polysaccharide with an affinity of 2.44 x 10^11 M^-1.This antibody also cross-reacts with the 6A polysaccharide, with an affinity of 6.41 x 10^10 M^-1, and also reacts with serotypes 6C and 6D. |
Alternative Name | CPS 6B; capsular PS 6B |
UniProt | |
Immunogen | This antibody was raised by immunising BALB/c mice with S. pneumoniae 6B capsular polysaccharide conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin. |
Application Notes | This antibody has been used in flow cytometric analysis as part of a panel of serogroup 6-specific mAbs to define the serologic properties of new S. pneumoniae isolates (Oliver et al, 2013). The ability of this antibody to bind S. pneumoniae 6B and 6A serotypes has been characterised in ELISA analysis (Sun et al, 2001). |
