Development of monoclonal antibodies against Rhodococcus equi virulence-associated protein N and their application to pathological diagnosis

ABSTRACT Since 2015, virulence-associated protein N (vapN)-positive Rhodococcus equi has been isolated from pyogenic lesions in ruminants in multiple countries, including Japan, supporting the widespread distribution of this pathogen in ruminants, and suggesting that VapN is responsible for the path...
