Abstract excerpt
The core region of Pseudomonas aeruginosa lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was analysed by four LPS-core-specific human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs; FK-2E7, MH-4H7, OM-1D6 and NM-3G8). Reactivity of these mAbs to about 180 P. aeruginosa strains was tested. FK-2E7 bound to strains of Homma serotype E and...
