Summary of documented, immunoreactive antigens of P. salmonis.
| Reference | Immunoreactive antigens of Piscirickettsia salmonis |
|---|---|
| Kuzyk et al. (71) | 6 immunoreactive Ag (2 carbohydrates). Low humoral response in salmonids infected with these Ag |
| Barnes et al. (72) | 6 immunoreactive Ag (2 carbohydrates, 4 proteins). One of the proteins homologous to Hsp60 of Rickettsia tsutsugamushi |
| Jones et al. (73) | 9 protein bands and several non-protein bands were detected by immunoblot. Antigenic homogeneity observed among geographically diverse strains |
| Jamett et al. (74) | Developed and tested 6 monoclonal antibodies against P. salmonis |
| Marshall et al. (75) | Immunological characterization of Chaperon protein (membrane associated structural component) |
