MDR
The subject relates to an isolated antibody that specifically binds to O25b antigen of multi drug resistant (MDR) E. coli strains, its medical and diagnostic use, method of producing the antibody, including an isolated nucleotide sequence, plasmids and host cells as used in the production of the antibody; and further an isolated epitope recognized the specific antibody.
1. A monoclonal antibody composition comprising:
an isolated monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to 025b antigen of multi drug resistant (MDR) E. coli strains, and
a carrier or excipient.
2. A monoclonal antibody composition comprising:
a) an isolated monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to 025b antigen of multi drug resistant (MDR) E. coli strains which comprises:
the variable region of the antibody light chain produced by the host cell deposited under DSM 26763; and
the variable region of the antibody heavy chain produced by the host cell deposited under DSM 26762; and
b) a carrier or excipient.
3. A monoclonal antibody composition comprising:
a) an isolated monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to 025b antigen of multi drug resistant (MDR) E. coli strains which comprises:
the variable region of the antibody light chain produced by the host cell deposited under DSM 28171; and
the variable region of the antibody heavy chain produced by the host cell deposited under DSM 28172; and
b) a carrier or excipient.
4. A pharmaceutical preparation of an antibody of claim 1 , comprising a parenteral or mucosal formulation, containing a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient.
5. A diagnostic preparation of an antibody of claim 1 containing the antibody with a label and/or a further diagnostic reagent with a label and/or a solid phase to immobilize at least one of the antibody and the diagnostic reagent.
