On the serology of Vibrio vulnificus

Japanese Journal of Medical Science & Biology

Abstract

The serology of 70 strains of Vibrio vulnificus was studied. Seven O-antigenic groups were defined among them and it was shown that the H antigens of all the strains were identical. A heat-labile masked antigen, which inhibits O agglutination, was found in some strains. As all O antisera for V. vulnificus contained some R antibody, all diagnostic O sera must be absorbed with R organisms before use.

Antibodies: Agglutination

Antibody-mediated agglutination is the clumping of cells in the presence of antibody, which binds multiple cells together. This enhances the clearance of pathogens. Find the latest research on antibody-mediated agglutination here.
