Antigenic relationships of various mycobacterial species with Mycobacterium tuberculosis

S D Chaparas et al. Am Rev Respir Dis. 1978 Jun.

Abstract

Antigen cross reactivity of various mycobacterial sonicates with Mycobacterium tuberculosis was studied by fused rocket immunoelectrophoresis using 2 Mycobacterium tuberculosis reference antisera. A considerable degree of cross reactivity was noted with both antisera, and each anti-serum revealed different information about the antigenic complexities between mycobacteria.
