Title: Activation of the alternative complement pathway by a streptococcal lipoteichoic acid. Author: Fiedel BA, Jackson RW. Journal: Infect Immun; 1978 Oct; 22(1):286-7. PubMed ID: 365748.

Over a narrow concentration range of the teichoic acid, complement consumption was dose dependent, whereas at higher concentrations of the acid complement consumption could not be detected.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
