Clostridium botulinus - Rabbit Anti-Clostridium botulinus
Clostridium botulinum neurotoxins are zinc-dependent proteases that block the release of acetylcholine from peripheral cholinergic nerve endings by targeting specific membrane proteins including synaptosomal-associated proteins (SNAP), vesicle-associated membrane proteins (VAMP), and syntaxins. Neurotoxin A is characteristically associated with human botulism and known to target and hydrolyse the 197-Gln-|-Arg-198 bond of SNAP-25

HIV-1 Vif Antibody- Mouse Anti-HIV-1 Vif
HIV1 Vif (viral infectivity factor), supports productive viral replication in non-permissive cells, such as peripheral blood lymphocytes. It functions by inactivating a cellular anti-viral factor named APOBEC3G.Vif binds viral RNA and affects the stability of viral nucleoprotein core. May play a role in viral morphology. Interacts with host ABCE1, which seems to be involved in lentiviruses capsid formation and displays RNase L inhibitor activity. This interaction may play a role in protecting viral RNA from damage during viral assembly

Influenza A Nucleoprotein Antibody- Mouse Anti-Influenza A
The nucleoprotein (NP) of Influenza virus encapsulates the negative strand of the viral RNA and is essential for replicative transcription. It may also be involved in other essential functions throughout the virus life cycle. As well as binding ssRNA, NP is able to self associate to form large oligomeric complexes. NP is able to interact with a variety of other macromolecules of both viral and cellular origins. It binds the PB1 and PB2 subunits of the polymerase and the matrix protein M1. "NP has also been shown to interact with at least four cellular polypeptide families: nuclear import receptors of the importin class, filamentous (F) actin, the nuclear export receptor CRM1 and a DEAD box helicase BAT1/UAP56" (Portela et al 2002).

Influenza B Virus Nucleoprotein Antibody- Mouse Anti-Influenza B Nucleoprotein
Influenza virus B is a genus in the virus family Orthomyxoviridae. A limited host range means that Influenza virus B pandemics are rare.The nucleoprotein protects the negative strand viral RNA from nucleases by encapsidating it. encapsidated genomic RNA is termed the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) and serves as template for transcription and replication

Penicillin Antibody- Mouse Anti-Penicillin
Penicillin is a group of Beta-lactam antibiotics used in the treatment of bacterial infections caused by susceptible usually Gram-positive organisms -lactam antibiotics work by inhibiting the formation of peptidoglycan cross-links in the bacterial cell wall which results in cytolysis

Pseudomonas aeruginosa serotype 16c Antibody- Mouse Anti- P.aeruginosa serotype 16c
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is Gram-negative aerobic rod-shaped bacteria with unipolar motility An opportunistic human pathogen P aeruginosa is also an opportunistic pathogen of plants P aeruginosa bacteria are clinically important because they are resistant to most antibiotics and they are capable of surviving in conditions that few other organisms can tolerate Pseudomonas is often encountered in hospital and clinical work because it is a major cause of hospital acquired (nosocomal) infections Its main targets are immunocompromised individuals burn victims and individuals on respirators or with indwelling catheters Additionally these pathogens colonize the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients P aeruginosa is often identified by its pearlescent appearance and grape-like odor in vitro Definitive clinical identification of P aeruginosa includes identifying the production of both pyocyanin and fluorescein as well as its ability to grow at 42C P aeruginosa is capable of growth in diesel and jet fuel where it is known as hydrocarbon utilizing microorganisms (or HUM bugs) causing microbial corrosion It creates dark gellish mats sometimes improperly called algae

Staphylococcal enterotoxin B Antibody- Mouse Anti-Staphylococcal enterotoxin B
Staphylococcal enterotoxins represent a group of proteins, which are secreted by Staphylococcus aureus and cause staphylococcal food poisoning syndrome. The illness is characterised by high fever, hypotension, diarrhea, shock, and in some cases death. Their molecular masses range between 27 and 30 kDa. At present, seven enterotoxins are known, namely A, B, C1, C2, C3, D and E. Their amino acid sequences have been determined and it was shown that all are single chain polypeptides containing one disulfide bond formed by two half cystines located in the middle of the polypeptide chain, which form the so called cysteine loop. SEB is an extremely potent activator of T cells, stimulating the production and secretion of various cytokines which mediate many of the toxic effects of SEB
