C. Bauer et al., CHARACTERIZATION OF SURFACE-ANTIGENS OF EIMERIA-NIESCHULZI (SPOROZOA,EIMERIIDAE) MEROZOITES, Parasitology research, 81(3), 1995, pp. 230-234
Two surface antigens of Eimeria nieschulzi merozoites were characteriz
ed by monoclonal antibodies (Mcab) as follows: an antigen of 31 (reduc
ing conditions), 25 and 31 kDa (nonreducing conditions), by Mcab A1F6;
and an antigen of 52 and 30 kDa (reducing conditions) or 42 kDa (nonr
educing conditions), by Mcab H7. The localization of the antigens in f
luorescence and electron micrographs is presented. Despite being acces
sible to antibodies on live (nonpermeabilized) parasites, neither anti
gens were significantly labelled using lactoperoxidase radioiodination
.
