Development of an Opsonophagocytic Killing Assay Using HL-60 Cells for Detection of Functional Antibodies against <italic toggle="yes">Streptococcus pyogenes</italic>

ABSTRACT The clinical development of group A streptococcal (GAS) vaccines will require the implementation of a standardized, high-throughput assay to measure the activity of functional opsonic antibodies in vaccine recipients. In the present study, we adapted and modified the HL-60-based protocol th...
