New Stx2e Monoclonal Antibodies for Immunological Detection and Distinction of Stx2 Subtypes.

Stx2e is a primary virulence factor in STEC strains that cause edema disease in neonatal piglets. Though Stx2a and Stx2e are similar, many antibody-based Stx detection kits are designed to detect Stx2a and do not recognize the Stx2e subtype.Four monoclonal antibodies against Stx2e were developed and...
