Se18.9 Antibody (H-6): sc-393707

Se18.9 Antibody (H-6) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a kappa light chain antibody that detects Se18.9 protein of Streptococcus equi subsp. equi by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anti-Se18.9 antibody (H-6) recognizes a 163 amino acid protein that plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of Streptococcus equi, a clonal pathogen specifically adapted to equine hosts, responsible for the highly contagious disease known as strangles. Se18.9 (H-6) antibody binds to this surface protein, facilitating understanding of infection mechanisms and immune evasion employed by S. equi. Strangles manifests with symptoms such as fever, depression, and lymphadenopathy, which can lead to severe respiratory distress, highlighting the importance of early detection and intervention. The transmission of S. equi occurs through inhalation or direct contact with infected secretions, underscoring the need for effective diagnostic tools like Se18.9 monoclonal antibody (H-6) to manage outbreaks and protect equine health.

The preferred Se18.9 antibody is Se18.9 Antibody (B-8): sc-393805.
