Abstract:The detergents sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) and sodium deoxycholate (NaD) are frequently used as solvents for macromolecular polysaccharide complexes in immunochemical and serological techniques. The influence of the disaggregating surfactants on the serological reactivity of endotoxins isolated from six serotype specific reference strains of the Bacteroides fragilis group was investigated by comparing haemagglutinating and precipitating reactivities of antigen solutions in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), Na… Show more
