| Antibodies | Mab F12D2 |
| Antibody Type Class | IgG3 |
| Assay System | ELISA |
| Cross Reactivity | This antibody cross-reacted with Serotypes A, B, C and D |
| Proposed Epitope | Studies on this antibody showed that there are 2 types of epitopes on GXM-O-acetyl dependent and O-acetyl independent. MAb F12D2 also fails to react with xylose deficient GXM shopwing that xylose residues form an important part of the epitope |
| IEDB Epitope | N/A |
| Proposed Utility | This antibody was used in the elucidation of the probable epitopes present in glucurunoxylomannan. This antibody showed that the induction of a MAb that is reactive with all serotypes does not inherently require the presence of an O-acetyl group on the immunizing GXM |
