Staphylococcal 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...

Specificity and cross-reactivity of staphylococcal enterotoxin A monoclonal antibodies with enterotoxins B, C1, D, and E.

The cross-reactivity of monoclonal antibodies produced against staphylococcal enterotoxin A with purified and crude enterotoxins B, C1, D, and E and the specificity of such reactions were evaluated by the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoblotting of Western blots (from sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) followed by autoradiography. Purified and crude ...
