Uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> Outer Membrane Antigens Expressed during Urinary Tract Infection
22 May 2007
Abstract excerpt
Uncomplicated urinary tract infection (UTI) caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) represents a prevalent and potentially severe infectious disease. In this study, we describe the application of an immunoproteomics approach to vaccine development that has been used successfully to identify vaccine targets in other pathogenic bacteria. Outer membranes were isolated from pyelonephritis strain E. coli...
