Anti-Streptococci Group A Mouse Monoclonal Antibody – Library Pack (155101)

Streptococcus pyogenes is the sole species of Lancefield group A and is often called group A streptococcus (GAS), because it displays streptococcal group A antigen on its cell wall. Infections due to certain strains of S. pyogenes can be associated with the release of bacterial toxins. Throat infections associated with release of certain toxins lead to scarlet fever. Other toxigenic S. pyogenes infections may lead to streptococcal toxic shock syndrome, which can be life-threatening. S. pyogenes can also cause disease in the form of postinfectious syndromes. These autoimmune-mediated complications follow a small percentage of infections and include rheumatic fever and acute postinfectious glomerulonephritis.

UV-inactivated Strep. pyogenes cells (ATCC #12344).

These antibodies recognize Group A Streptococci. They do not cross-react with Streptococcus groups B through G, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Corynebacterium dyptheriae, Streptococcus salivarius, or Micrococcus mucilagines.

Antibodies are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates.
