Abstract

Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) are produced that are directed against the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) of Campylobacter jejuni by using recombinant major outer membrane protein (MOMP) as the antigen. The epitope is located in a region that is exposed to the periplasm and MAb5C4 is shown to be a potentially specific and sensitive MAb that is used for the specific detection and identification of Campylobacter jejuni.
