Abstract excerpt
The antigen expression profiles of Mycoplasma gallisepticum isolates obtained from tracheal swabs of chickens after aerosol-inoculation with M. gallisepticum strain R or clonal variant R/E were examined in western immunoblots. A reference anti-M. gallisepticum chicken antiserum and antisera from individual infected chickens as well as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific for surface proteins were used to monitor...
