Eighteen monoclonal antibodies were generated from mice immunized with Vibrio cholerae O1 serotype Inaba. Reactivities of these antibodies were investigated by slide agglutination, microdilution agglutination, and passive hemagglutination tests. Although all antibodies reacted to the Inaba-type cells, reactivity to Ogawa cells showed some variation. These antibodies were roughly subdivided into three groups by slide agglutination tests and microdilution agglutination tests by using type-specific standard strains. The first group showed almost identical reactivities to both the Ogawa- and the Inaba-type cells, while the second group reacted to Inaba-type cells but only very weakly reacted to Ogawa-type cells. The third group reacted only to Inaba-type cells; no agglutination was observed for Ogawa-type cells in either the slide agglutination or the microdilution agglutination tests. Most of the third group showed cross-reactivity to Brucella abortus and Yersinia enterocolitica O9. Results of passive hemagglutination tests showed that all 18 antibodies were to the lipopolysaccharide of V. cholerae O1.
