Borrelia burgdorferi Osp B Antibody (0561): sc-57642

Borrelia burgdorferi Osp B Antibody (0561) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Borrelia burgdorferi Osp B protein by immunofluorescence (IF). Anti-Borrelia burgdorferi Osp B antibody (0561) is available as a non-conjugated format, specifically designed to aid in the study of Lyme disease, a vector-borne illness caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, which is transmitted to humans through the bite of ticks from the Ixodes ricinus complex. Borrelia burgdorferi Osp B (0561) monoclonal antibody enables research into the protein′s crucial role in Lyme disease pathogenesis, including bacterial adhesion to host cells, infection facilitation, and immune evasion. Understanding Osp B function is vital, as this protein contributes to bacterial tissue colonization and influences host immune response, making Osp B a potential therapeutic target. Anti-Borrelia burgdorferi Osp B antibody (0561) allows researchers to investigate protein expression and localization in infected tissues, providing insights into Lyme disease mechanisms and host-pathogen interactions during infection.
