Abstract

A monoclonal antibody to Serpulina hyodysenteriae 8930 was produced and was used to probe pronase-treated cell lysates of S. hyodysenteriae isolates in immunblots. The results showed that the monoclonal antibody was specific for only five closely related S. hyodysenteriae isolates: 8930, 5380, 70A, RMIT 88, and RMIT 97.
