  • Compositions and methods useful for uropathogenic bacterial identification or diagnosis and inhibition of adherence of uropathogenic bacteria to cells having a structural element similar to that of the active principle of the invention
    Patent number: 4762824
    Abstract: Compositions and methods useful for identification or diagnostic use, or inhibition of adherence of uropathogenic bacteria to cells, all in connection with uropathogenic bacterial infections, containing as an active constituent the structural element, preferably in terminal position:.alpha.--D--Galp--(1-4)--D--Gal.Process for identification or quantification of such structural element in native biological material from mammals including man, comprising using antibodies, the generation of which has been initiated by such composition. A process for the identification of bacterial acceptor structures (pili, syn. fimbriae) recognizing the described structural element, comprising using this recognition. A process for purifying acceptor structures of bacteria, comprising using for the purification the affinity between such structural element and the corresponding acceptor structures on the bacteria.
