Reactivity of Paul-Bunnell type heterophile antibody in sera from infectious mononucleosis patients with the surface of lymphoid cells carrying Epstein-Barr virus genomes.

abstract：:Antibodies to fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBPs) of Staphylococcus aureus, including binding domain of FnBPA, the D region, or the A-C regions of FnBPB were produced in rabbits and mice. These antibodies were used to characterize cell-associated FnBPs of S. aureus strain Cowan I, S. aureus strain U320 and a coagulas...
