Differential effects of myeloperoxidase-derived oxidants on Escherichia coli DNA replication.

abstract：:Cryptococcus neoformans is surrounded by a capsular polysaccharide. There are at least four known serotypes of the polysaccharide. The objective of this study was to produce monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) that could be used to study the distribution of epitopes among the serotypes of C. neoformans. BALB/c mice were immu...
