Antibodies anti-Shiga toxin 2 B subunit from chicken egg yolk: Isolation, purification and neutralization efficacy 2011-09-15 .txt text/plain 6045 326 53 The data suggest that immunization of hens with Stx2B could be a strategy to obtain at low cost a relatively high concentration of anti-Stx2 egg yolk IgY, able to neutralize Stx2 lethal activity. The data suggest that immunization of hens with Stx2B could be a strategy to obtain at low cost a relatively high concentration of anti-Stx2 egg yolk IgY, able to neutralize Stx2 lethal activity. Specific anti-Stx2B polyclonal antibodies obtained from chicken egg yolk and rabbit sera recognized not only the denatured and native form of B subunit, used for immunization but the antibodies were also able to recognize the denatured and native wild type Stx2 holotoxin in western blot (Fig. 3) , indirect ELISA (Fig. 4) and sandwich ELISA (Fig. 5) . In the present report, specific egg yolk IgY antibodies with binding and neutralizing capabilities against the wild type Stx2 toxin were obtained after immunization of laying hens. ./cache/cord-295033-5fd9bu60.txt ./txt/cord-295033-5fd9bu60.txt
