TL;DR: The results suggest that despite having a polysaccharide capsule, V. cholerae O139 induces systemic and intestine-derived ASC responses in peripheral blood comparable to those seen in patients with V.Cholera O1 disease, which reflects the lack of cross-protection between the infections caused by the two serogroups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production, characterization, and application of monoclonal antibodies to Vibrio cholerae O139 synonym Bengal.
TL;DR: Mouse monoclonal antibodies derived against acetone-treated whole cells of the newly recognized Vibrio cholerae O139 serogroup which is causing epidemics of cholera-like disease in India and Bangladesh are established, establishing their utility as highly sensitive and specific diagnostic reagents.
