Abstract

PBS BSA MHC MSP-1
Antibody from cattle immunized with purified major surface protein-1 (MSP-1) was demonstrated to significantly enhance phagocytosis of Florida strain Anaplasma marginale by bovine macrophages in vitro. Serum immunoglobulin from individual MSP-1 immunized, protected cattle varied in ability to promote phagocytosis, however all sera were significantly opsonic as compared with sera from sham immunized control cattle.
