Journal ArticleDOI
A rapid sensitive method for detection of alkaline phosphatase conjugated anti antibody on western blots
TL;DR: A rapid, sensitive method has been developed to detect antibody-antigen complexes on "Western blots" by using Tween 20 to separate and blot the antigens onto nitrocellulose.
Journal ArticleDOI
The serological classification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. I. Isolation of the outer membrane complex responsible for serotypic specificity
TL;DR: The serotyping system is based upon the antigenic specificity of a protein serotype antigen, which is the major polypeptide of the outer membrane of the gonococcus and accounts for over 60% of that membrane's total protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and Characterization of the Outer Membrane of Neisseria gonorrhoeae
TL;DR: The cell envelope of Neisseria gonorrhoeae strain 2686, colonial type 4, was isolated from spheroplasts formed by the action of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and lysozyme and the membrane components were similar to those of other gram-negative bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Location of variable and conserved epitopes among the multiple serotypes of streptococcal M protein.
Kevin F. Jones,Belur N. Manjula,Kenneth H. Johnston,Susan K. Hollingshead,June R. Scott,Vincent A. Fischetti +5 more
TL;DR: These studies reveal that the more conserved determinant, located more proximally to the cell surface, is accessible to the immune system, even on the whole organism, and, thus, may be useful in devising means to protect against infections by multiple group A streptococcal M serotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and partial characterization of the nephritis strain-associated protein from Streptococcus pyogenes, group A.
TL;DR: Biochemical analysis and immunological investigations indicated that NSAP is antigenically different from streptokinase from group C streptococcus, and possibly represents a unique strePTokinase, and may contribute to the role of NSAP in the pathogenesis of acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis.
