Serotyping and electron microscopy studies of Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates with monoclonal antibodies to capsular polysaccharide types 5 and 8
Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies to Staphylococcus aureus capsular polysaccharide types 5 and 8 were prepared and used to serotype 821 clinical isolates of S. aureus from four countries. The capsular polysaccharide-binding sites on the bacterial membrane were examined by transmission and scanning electron microscopy.
