  • E. coli agglutination assay
    Patent number: 6689572
    Abstract: A method for detecting Escherichia coli in a sample by providing a sample suspected of containing Escherichia coli; contacting the sample with beads coated with a mixture of antibodies or anti-serum specific to one or more surface antigens of Escherichia coli, each of the one or more surface antigens having a molecular weight of 21±2 KDa, 26±2 KDa, 31±2 KDa, 36±2 KDa, 38±2 KDa, 67±2 KDa, or 77.8±2 KDa; and observing agglutination of the beads, where the presence of the agglutination indicates the presence of Escherichia coli in the sample.
