Ammonium sulfate coprecipitation antibody determination with purified staphylococcal enterotoxins.
The ammonium sulfate coprecipitation technique of Farr was applied in a study of the purified enterotoxins of Staphylococcus aureus. Ammonium sulfate coprecipitation of iodine-131-labeled enterotoxins A, B, and C, with the use of a 1.6 m concentration of (NH(4))(2)SO(4), revealed differences in the antigen-binding capacity of normal and immune rabbit sera for the enterotoxins. The coprecipitati...
متن کاملStaphylococcal Enterotoxins
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a Gram positive bacterium that is carried by about one third of the general population and is responsible for common and serious diseases. These diseases include food poisoning and toxic shock syndrome, which are caused by exotoxins produced by S. aureus. Of the more than 20 Staphylococcal enterotoxins, SEA and SEB are the best characterized and are also reg...
متن کاملStaphylococcal enterotoxins in scarlet fever complicating chickenpox.
Two cases of scarlet fever are described, both following super-infection of chickenpox. Enterotoxin B and C producing staphylococci were the only pathogens identified. The role of staphylococcal and streptococcal toxins in the pathogenesis of scarlet fever and toxic shock syndrome is discussed.
متن کاملUse of ferric ammonium sulfate in serum cholesterol determination.
To determine cholesterolin biologicalfluids,use of the ferric chloride-sulfuric acid reagent introduced by Zlatkis et al. (1) is relatively simple and reliable (2, 3), and the sensitivityof the reagent for cholesterol is four to five times greater than that of the Liebermann-Burchard reagent (2). However, Parekh and Jung (4) reported that hydrogen chloride is evolved during the ferric chloride-...
متن کاملThe Systemic and Pulmonary Immune Response to Staphylococcal Enterotoxins
In response to environmental cues the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus synthesizes and releases proteinaceous enterotoxins. These enterotoxins are natural etiologic entities of severe food poisoning, toxic shock syndrome, and acute diseases. Staphylococcal enterotoxins are currently listed as Category B Bioterrorism Agents by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. They are associate...
