Specificity

Specific for the three-dimensional polymer complex structure of PG. The epitopes appear to consist of discontinuous glycan and/or amino acid residues, and have not been fully defined. In a competitive immunoassay format, several compounds were found to be ineffective as inhibitors: muramyldipeptide, N-acetylglucosamine (NAG), chitin (polymer of NAG) and acid-hydrolyzed chitin (NAG oligomers).

Immunogen

Insoluble PG obtained by TCA-heat and ethanol extraction of Streptococcus mutans BHT cells.

Application

May be used in solid-phase or competitive ELISA, immunodot-blot and immunocytochemistry formats. Although PG is a bacterial surface component, pre-treatments, such as treatment with strong acid (25mM HCl), for Gram-positive bacteria, or with a detergent, such as SDS or Triton-X (1% in PBS), for Gram-negative bacteria, may be necessary to expose the epitopes.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Enterococcus faecium is a commensal but also a bacteremia causing pathogen, which is inherently resistant to several antimicrobials and has a great ability to acquire new traits. Bacterial membrane vesicles (MVs) are increasingly recognized as a mode of cell-free communication

A panel of 10 IgG enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were developed for the detection of anti-microbial immune responses in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with demyelinating diseases (DD). The anti-microbial ELISA assays follow on prior human brain tissue RNA

It has long been known that spirochetes form clumps or micro colonies in vitro and in vivo. Cortical spirochetal colonies in syphilitic dementia were considered as reproductive centers for spirochetes. Historic and recent data demonstrate that senile plaques in Alzheimer's
