A NOVEL METHOD OF PURIFICATION OF SPECIFIC HYDATID CYST ANTIGEN
Hydatid cyst fluid has been used as a source of antigen for the serodiagnosis of Echinococcus granulosus infection. Due to cross-reactions with antigens shared by other helminthes, the specific antigen from hydatid cyst fluid was purified by many workers. We used a relatively simple technique for purification of specific antigen from sheep hydatid cyst fluid. Isopycnic ultracentrifugation w...
متن کاملExtracellular Antigens from Listeria monocytogenes I. Purification and Resolution of Hemolytic and Lipolytic Antigens from Culture Filtrates of Listeria monocytogenes.
Two antigens were purified from culture filtrates of Listeria monocytogenes 7973 by the following procedure: (i) acid precipitation with 4 n HCl at pH 3.7, (ii) Sephadex G-75 column fractionation, (iii) diethylaminoethyl-Sephadex A50 batchwise adsorption, and (iv) rechromatography on Sephadex G-75. This procedure resulted in the resolution of two distinct antigens. One antigen, designated a hem...
متن کاملProduction, purification and characterization of hemolysins from Listeria ivanovii and Listeria monocytogenes Sv4b.
In culture supernatants of both Listeria ivanovii and Listeria monocytogenes Sv4b, for the first time a hemolysin of molecular weight 58 kDa was identified, which had all the characteristics of an SH-activated cytolysin, and which was therefore identified as listeriolysin O (LLO). In the case of L. ivanovii a second major supernatant protein of molecular weight 24 kDa co-purified with LLO. Howe...
متن کاملIsolation of Listeria monocytogenes from Meat and Dairy Products
Introduction: This study was intended to determine the presence and distribution of Listeria monocytogenes in various meat and dairy products from Qazvin Province by culture followed by biochemical and morphological assays. The identity of the isolates was further obtained by amplification of prfA gene in bacteria isolates. This gene is a transcriptional activator of virulence gene ex...
متن کاملThe investigation of molecular characterization of presumptive Listeria monocytogenes isolates from a food-processing environment
Background: Listeria is a Gram-positive, non-spore forming, facultative anaerobic intracellular bacterium. The most important pathogens in mammals include Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria ivanovii. The former generally causes disease and death in both humans and animals while the latter performs sporadically and primarily causes illness in ruminant...
