PROCESS FOR PREPARATION OF HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT CELL-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN OF CAMPYLOBACTER PYLORI AND USE FOR SEROLOGICAL DETECTION OF CAMPYLOBACTER PYLORI INFECTION

摘要

An antigen for the detection of C. pylori infections and an assay for the serological detection of C. pylori. The antigen includes high molecular weight cell-associated proteins purified from C. pylori. The antigen can be used in a variety of assays including radioimmunoassay, ELISA, latex agglutination, complement fixation, and indirect hemagglutination. Furthermore, the antigens can be combined with a solid support in kit form.
