Investigation of pertussis toxin A- and B-subunit activities in acellular vaccines by enzymatic and carbohydrate-binding assays
Pertussis toxin (PT) is a major virulence factor produced by Bordetella pertussis. In its detoxified form (PTd), it is an important component of acellular pertussis vaccines although some residual FT activity may be present because of the limitations of the detoxification processes used. The in vivo...
