چکیده

Solutions of all of the C. P. sucrose reagents of American manufacture that were tested gave reactions with Type II antipneumococcus serum. The capacity of that antiserum to react with sucrose solutions was removed by absorption with the homologous pneumococci or with Leuconostoc mesenteroides. The serological reactivity was due not to sucrose itself but to accompanying substances that could be removed by precipitation with a proper concentration of alcohol or by treatment with activated carbon. Although Type II antipneumococcus serum was used to detect its presence the reactive material found in the sucrose can be considered to be only related and not identical with antigens of Type II pneumococci.

Serological Differentiation of Steric Isomers (antigens Containing Tartaric Acids)

In continuation of studies on the stereochemical specificity of serum reactions, antigens were examined containing the acyl radicals of the levo-, dextro-, and meso-tartaric acids. It was found that in this case also, immune sera can readily be obtained which differentiate sharply the three antigens identical in every other respect but possessing stereoisomeric groups. Since the tartaric acids ...

Bacteriological and serological studies on Mannheimia haemolytica infection in cattle slaughtered at Ahvaz (southwestern Iran) abattoir

In order to investigate the prevalence of Mannheimia haemolytica infection in cattle, nasal andnasopharyngeal swabs and blood samples were obtained from 250 cattle after slaughter at Ahvaz(southwestern Iran) abattoir. Nasal and nasopharyngeal swabs were cultured on blood agar and incubated at37°C for 24-48 h. The suspected bacterial cultures were processed for isolation of M. haemolytica follow...

Rust-sugar Cane Interaction - Possible Application of Serological Methods for Early Selection to Rust Disease

Antigens and antisera from in vitro cultures of Puccinia melanocephala Sydow, uredospores collected from the field and sugar cane varieties were obtained. Cross-reactions were detected between the fungi and plants by counterimmunoelectrophoresis, immunoelectrophoresis and indirect ELISA. The last technique detected more antigenic relationships with the susceptible plants. This result may be use...

Effect of Alkali on the Immunological Reactivity of Lipopolysaccharide from Salmonella typhimurium.

The effect of mild alkaline hydrolysis on the immunological reactivity of Salmonella typhimurium lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was studied. Hydrolysis of LPS at 37 C in 0.01 to 0.25 n NaOH caused a decrease in precipitation of LPS by antiserum. Red cells sensitized with alkali-treated LPS were less responsive to hemagglutination by antiserum than were cells sensitized with heated LPS. Hemagglutinati...
