Diagnosis of Bactec samples by immunoglobulins of mouse hyperimmune sera obtained against modified antigens of the cell wall of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by I. V. Kozlova, V. G. Avdienko, S. S. Babayan, I. Yu. Andrievskaya, V. Ya. Gergert

“…In immunoblotting, there was a narrowing of the spectrum of recognized antigens by the sera of hyperimmune mice (compared with whole CW), which indicated a decrease in their immunogenicity. Modification of WC of M. tuberculosis disavows 54 kDa antigen, causing a strong IgG1 subclass response.Diagnostic efficacy in ELISA with Bactec cultures increases with the use of immunoglobulins obtained against antigens treated with proteinase K – 79.14% (Pr.A) and 86.68% (Pr.G), when compared with immunoglobulins against the original drug – 70.69% (Pr.A) and 69.11% (Pr.G). …”
