Abstract

An assay of neutralizing activity against CHO cell-clustering activity, one of the most common assays for anti-pertussis toxin antibodies, did not correlate well with an assay of the protective activities of monoclonal antibodies. A better correlation between neutralization of leukocytosis-promoting or islet-activating activity and mouse protection against aerosol challenge was seen.
