摘要:
An isolated and purified outer membrane protein of a Moraxella strain, particularly M. catarrhalis, having a molecular mass of about 200 kDa, is provided. The about 200 kDa outer membrane protein as well as nucleic acid molecules encoding the same are useful in diagnostic applications and immunogenic compositions, particularly for in vivo administration to a host to confer protection against disease caused by a bacterial pathogen that produces the about 200 kDa outer membrane protein or produces a protein capable of inducing antibodies in a host specifically reactive with the about 200 kDa outer membrane protein.

摘要:
The present invention involves a polyvalent hyperimmunoglobulin preparation having activity against gram negative and gram positive bacteria. Such a polyvalent hyperimmunoglobulin preparation is prepared from plasma, serum or whole blood from donors. Donor selection is based upon titer against E. coli J5 antigen or against lipid A antigen.

摘要:
Disclosed is a method for producing anti-E. coli O157 antibodies. Anti-E. coli O157:H7 antibodies are produced in egg-laying hens and isolated from the eggs. E. coli O157:H7 is cultured in a brain heart infusion broth and killed by the treatment with hot water for 5-10 min. After being collected by centrifugation, the dead bacteria is homogenized. Serving as an antigenic material, the bacterial homogenate is injected into egg-laying hens to induce antibodies against E. coli O157:H7 in the eggs. The induced antibodies are isolated from the yolk of the eggs and the eggs containing the antibodies against E. coli O157:H7 can be utilized, in their entirety, for foods. Alternatively, the yolks are separated from the eggs and freeze-dried. The resulting dried egg component can be applied to processed foodstuffs, alone or in combination with whole eggs. Since the antibodies against E. coli O157:H7 are contained in frozen eggs, it is very convenient to store the antibodies. The storage in the frozen eggs also makes it possible to apply the antibodies to almost all foods at any time.
摘要:
Novel monoclonal antibodies are disclosed, the production of which is specified by particular genes contained, conveniently, in biologically pure cultures of self-reproducing carrier cells, such as, but not limited to, ATCC HB 8297 and ATCC HB 8298, such antibodies being reactive with at least part of endotoxin core of Gram-negative bacteria. Processes of prepaU.S. GOVERNMENT RIGHTSThe invention described herein may be manufactured, used and licensed by or for the U.S. Government for governmental purposes only without the payment to the inventors of any royalties thereon.
摘要:
A vaccine, effective in inducing the production of antibodies with which to immunize a second subject passively against infection by Gram-negative bacteria and LPS-mediated pathology, comprises a non-covalent polyvalent complex formed between purified, detoxified LPS derived from E. coli and purified outer membrane protein derived from N. meningitidis. The same vaccine will also actively immunize a host subject against Gram-negative bacterial infections and LPS-mediated pathology. Meningococcal infections are included among those Gram-negative bacterial infections protected against by the vaccine.

摘要:
Anti-cholesterolemic eggs are disclosed, said eggs being obtained from animals hyperimmunized against at least one anti-cholesterolemic antigen. A vaccine producing said anti-cholesterolemic egg is disclosed, said vaccine comprising at least one anti-cholesterolemic antigen. Further, a dietary supplement for humans and other animals which does not elevate serum lipid concentrations is disclosed, said supplement comprising the anti-cholesterolemic eggs or fractions thereof. A method for treating vascular disorders in humans and other animals is also disclosed which comprises administering to said subjects said anti-cholesterolemic eggs for a time and in amounts sufficient to produce anti-arteriosclerotic effects, anti-aging vascular effects, and/or serum lipid-lowering effects.
