Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-LPS Hafnia alvei PCM 1186 [HA1186]
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Molecular weight of the target: approx 150kDa
  • Application: ELISA ; WB ;DB
  • Description: Lipopolysaccharde is the major constituent of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. It is composed of lipid A covalently joined with polysaccharide in which 3 regions are structurally defined: inner core, outer core and O-antigen. LPS is a potent activator of immune response and is responsible for toxic effects when introduced to an organism. O-antigens is a polymer of different length and composition built of repetitive oligosaccharide units. O-antigen is the most variable region of LPS and defines strain specificity of bacteria, therefore is used as an antigen in serotyping with specific sera or monoclonal antibody.
