Detection of shiga-like toxins of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli

摘要

A rapid, sensitive, non-radioactive diagnostic kit for the direct detection of both Shiga-like toxin, type I, and Shiga-like toxin, type II, produced by enterohemorrhagic Escherichia Coli in food and clinical samples. This diagnostic kit is comprised of a monoclonal antibody capable of detecting Shiga-like toxin, type I, and a monoclonal antibody capable of detecting Shiga-like toxin, type II, together with a chemiluminescing detection reagent with a sensitivity enhancer.
