Cross-reactivity of antibodies against T-2 with deepoxide T-2 toxin

Mycotoxin Research volume 4, pages 15–19 (1988)Cite this article

Abstract

Two types of antibodies raised against T-2 toxin, namely anti-T-2-HS-BSA and anti-3 -Ac -NEOS-HS -BSA, showed good cross-reactivity with deepoxy T-2 toxin. Our results indicate that the epoxide is not an important epitope for the production of antibody against T-2 toxin
