[Sensitizing properties of Brucella protein antigens synthesized in K12 Escherichia coli cells]. 1991

The sensitizing properties of brucella 31 kD and 31+15 kD protein antigens produced by Escherichia coli cell carrying and expressing the corresponding brucella genes were compared. In experiments evaluating the test of mouse feet oedema in CBA line animals the property of the 31 kD antigen preparation to induce the specific oedema effect was demonstrated on the level comparable with the one produced by the brucella outer membrane proteins preparation. The obtained data were confirmed in the experiments on adoptive transfer of prolonged type hypersensitivity via the spleen cells from the sensitized donors to intact recipient animals. The future of molecular cloning technique usage for obtaining the homogeneous stable preparations of brucella antigens with low reactivity and high specificity is discussed.

D002002 Brucella A genus of gram-negative, aerobic bacteria that causes BRUCELLOSIS. Its cells are nonmotile coccobacilli and are animal parasites and pathogens. The bacterium is transmissible to humans through contact with infected dairy products or tissue.
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012680 Sensitivity and Specificity Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed) Specificity,Sensitivity,Specificity and Sensitivity
