The immune response to Brucella abortus 45/20 adjuvant vaccine in terms of immunoglobin class. 1976

M J Corbel

Cattle vaccinated with Brucella abortus 45/20 adjuvant vaccine developed agglutinins for rough brucella antigens which were largely of the IgG classes. Only small amounts of IgM rough agglutinins were produced at the earliest stages of the serological response. Non-agglutinating antibodies detectable in the antiglobulin test were mainly of IgG2 and IgGI classes. Cattle previously exposed to smooth brucella antigens, after vaccination with 45/20 adjuvant vaccine, initially developed high titres of IgM agglutinins reacting with smooth brucella antigens. Subsequently the agglutinins were largely of IgG type. The non-agglutinating antibodies reacting with both smooth and rough antigens were largely of the IgG2 and IgGI sub-classes.

D007075	Immunoglobulin M	A class of immunoglobulin bearing mu chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN MU-CHAINS). IgM can fix COMPLEMENT. The name comes from its high molecular weight and originally was called a macroglobulin.	Gamma Globulin, 19S,IgM,IgM Antibody,IgM1,IgM2,19S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgM
D002003	Brucella abortus	A species of the genus BRUCELLA whose natural hosts are cattle and other bovidae. Abortion and placentitis are frequently produced in the pregnant animal. Other mammals, including humans, may be infected.	Bacterium abortus,Brucella melitensis biovar abortus
