Abstract
The analysis of a series of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) developed in our laboratory against gut-associated antigens of Schistosoma mansoni is described. It was found that mAbs that recognized epitopes of antigens in the gut and on the eggshell were mainly of the IgM isotype; these epitopes are likely to be carbohydrate in composition. Of a number of mAbs that were reactive with antigens important to the human humoral immune response, 75% appeared to be reactive with the circulating cathodic antigen.Entities:
