Abstract excerpt
The indirect immunoperoxidase method with the use of monoclonal antibodies has been employed to determine the localization of antigens of melioidosis agents. The formed reaction products were then detected by the electron microscopic analysis. The most important in melioidosis pathogenesis antigens 6 and 8 (AG 6 and AG 8) were determined to localize on the cell wall and in the capsule-like mucous layer,...
