Abstract

Anti-tetanus antibodies in biological samples are typically detected using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay based on toxoided tetanus neurotoxin as antigen. We demonstrate that recombinantly produced fragment C of the toxin heavy chain is an effective alternative antigen for assessment of tetanus-immune status in plasma samples.
