Rapid and sensitive detection of Yersinia pestis by lateral-flow assay in simulated clinical samples
14 Aug 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Yersinia pestis is a contributing agent to the epidemic disease, plague, which killed an estimated 200 million people during historical times. In this study, a rapid, cheap, sensitive, and specific technique, the lateral flow assay (F1 strips), has been successfully developed to detect this pathogen, by using paired monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against Y. pestis capsule like fraction 1 (F1) protein....
