摘要 |
This invention relates to treatment of traveller's diarrhea, including diarrhea caused by enterotoxogenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), using an oligosaccharide-containing composition. The composition contains an oligosaccharide sequence covalently attached to a pharmaceutically acceptable solid, inert support through a non-peptidyl compatible linker arm. The oligosaccharide-containing composition binds E. coli heat-labile toxin (LT). More specifically, the invention concerns neutralization and removal of LT associated with traveller's diarrhea. |
