Abstract
Onoue, Kaoru, (Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan), Masayasu Kitagawa, and Yuichi Yamamura. Chemical studies on cellular components of Bordetella pertussis. I. Purification and properties of agglutinogen. J. Bacteriol. 82:648-656. 1961.-A method is described for the preparation of the agglutinogen of Hemophilus pertussis in phase I by methanol precipitation and ion-exchange chromatography. High homogeneity of this agglutinogen was evidenced by chromatography, but a trace of impurity was detected by ultracentrifugal analysis and by an agar gel diffusion test.The agglutinogen produced an allergic skin reaction in rabbits which had been immunized with whole phase I organisms. Chemical studies indicate that the agglutinogen should be a simple protein in nature. The approximate molecular weight was determined to be 10,000 by Archibald's method.
