| Moreover, Lancefield's studies in 1959 showed that type-specific opsonic antibodies can persist for 10-20 years after a GAS infection in humans. |
|
| One pool of GAS surface proteins induced antibodies that were both opsonic and potentially protective. |
|
| The data suggests that they contain a surface antigen that showed antibody responses which were both opsonic and potentially protective. |
|
| The replacement of opsonic and neutralizing IgG antibodies has been shown to be effective in pediatric HIV infections. |
|
| Here we report on the opsonic potential of the resulting sera and the level of protection induced by this peptide in comparison to a pepsin extract of the M protein. |
|
| How did opsonic antibodies enhance alveolar macrophage effectiveness? |
|
| PmLec had a strong hemagglutinating and bacterial-agglutinating activity as well as an opsonic effect that enhances hemocyte phagocytosis. |
|
| In summary, two polysaccharide antigens, LTA and a novel diheteroglycan, are targets of opsonic antibodies against typeable E. faecalis strains. |
|
| Diuresis of cirrhotic ascites increases its opsonic activity and may help prevent spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. |
|
| The effect of the antibodies to alginate conjugate was evaluated as highly opsonic and showed moderate to high-level killing activity against two mucoid strains. |
|
| Generally, protection against GAS infection has been correlated with presence of type specific opsonic antibodies against M protein. |
