E. coli Antibody (1002/224): sc-80773

E. coli Antibody (1002/224) is a mouse monoclonal IgG3 antibody that specifically detects E. coli through immunofluorescence (IF) applications. E. coli, a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium, is a vital component of the intestinal microbiota in mammals, playing a crucial role in digestion and nutrient absorption. The K99 pilus antigen, a significant virulence factor of E. coli, facilitates bacterial attachment to the intestinal epithelium, which is essential for colonization and infection. This interaction not only underscores the importance of E. coli in health and disease but also highlights its utility in research and biotechnology. The ability of E. coli to be genetically manipulated allows scientists to use this bacterium as a model organism for studying bacterial behavior and for producing recombinant proteins, making E. coli a cornerstone in molecular biology and genetic engineering. Anti-E. coli antibody (1002/224) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers exploring E. coli dynamics in various biological contexts, providing insights into pathogenic mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
