Immune reactivity of Brucella melitensis-vaccinated rabbit serum with recombinant Omp31 and DnaK proteins.

Abstract

It was proved that immunized serum contains antibodies against recombinant Omp31 (rOmp31) and DnaK (rDnaK) by Western blot and ELISA assays. The results may suggest the importance of these proteins as subunit vaccines against B. melitensis as well as targets for immunotherapy.
