General description
Staphylococcal α toxin, a water soluble 33kD single polypeptide, is a cytotoxic agent secreted by Staphylococcus aureus. This protein has membrane damaging properties and accounts for erythrocyte lysis. Hence it is also referred to as lethal hemolytic toxin or α-hemolysin . Anti-staphylococcal α-toxin antibody can be used for studies of the toxin-membrane interaction. Rabbit anti-staphylococcal α-toxin antibody reacts specifically with staphylococcal α-toxin but not with staphylococcal enterotoxin A, cholera toxin or pseudomonas exotoxin A.
Immunogen
α-toxin (α-hemolysin) from Staphylococcus aureus
Application
Anti-staphylococcal α-toxin antibody can be used in indirect ELISA (1:50,000) and dot blot immunoassay (1: 20,000).
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (1 paper)
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (1 paper)
Quality
The antiserum has been treated to remove lipoproteins.
