Abstract excerpt

Data regarding the hemagglutination (HA) patterns of the three variants (classes I, II, and III) of the Escherichia coli adhesin PapG are conflicting. These HA patterns usually have been assessed for each papG allele separately with recombinant strains in slide HA assays. We rigorously evaluated...
