  • Relevance

    Streptococci form part of the normal human flora that resides on the skin, and can also colonise the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary tracts. Streptococci can cause a range of diseases, from the less serious but common sore throats and skin infections to life threatening conditions such as necrotising fasciitis. Different streptococcal species are involved in human disease, broadly categorised as pus forming or pyogenic streptococci, non pus forming or non pyogenic streptococci, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Streptococci are classified into Lancefield serotypes by their cell wall polysaccharide antigens. Group A are primarily pathogens. Group B streptococci (including Streptococcus agalactiae) are the leading bacterial causes of human neonatal illness and death causing opportunistic invasive disease in pregnant women such as preterm labour, membrane rupture and urinary tract infections and sepsis and meningitis in newborns.

Question

Hi there, I am seeking some help and advice in order to choose wisely an antibody for some IHC purpose.   I need an antibody against Stretococcus agalactiae (also called Group B Streptococcus). But: - I am working with formalin fixed tissues from fish. - The tissues are infected with a fish specific Streptococcus agalactie: these are genetically and phenotypically very distinct from the Streptococcus agalactiae causing infection in humans or bovines. I tried already to do some IHC using an antibody from another company (QED Bioscience) but it did not work, and I do believe it is because the immunogen used to produce the antibody was from a human strain, and this specific immunogen is not shared between human and fish strains. The only immunogen that is guaranteed to work would be the group B specific polysaccharide ( the one used for Lancefield group B tests). à Would you have such product? I think your products ab68883 or ab68884 would suit, but could you confirm that to me?   Many thanks for your time,   Best regards,

Answer

Thank you for your enquiry. I am sorry to confirm that these two antibodies (ab68883 or ab68884) have not been tested in IHC-P or on the specific Streptococcus agalactie you wish to detect. All tested and guaranteed applications are specified on our datasheets, and these are updated as soon as any new information is brought to our attention. I am sorry we have no suitable tested antibodies to suggest on this occasion.  If you would like to test the antibody in IHC-P,  please contact our Scientific Support team prior to the purchase by replying to this message as you may be eligible for our testing discount program. Otherwise, we like to encourage all of our customers to submit an Abreview via the online product datasheet. We always appreciate customer feedback, whether positive or negative, and we make all product information available to researchers. Plus, each Abreview earns Abpoints that can be used for discounts on future purchases or rewards such as Amazon.com gift certificates.
