Abstract excerpt
Outer membrane protein (OMP) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) phenotypic diversity among 27 oral and extraoral strains of Eikenella corrodens was assessed by SDS-PAGE. Each strain exhibited one to three major protein bands in the 35- to 41.5-kDa range and one or two protein bands of lesser density in the 24.5- to 28-kDa range. Eleven OMP patterns were distinguished among the strains. While oral strains obtained from...
