Serological detection of Gram-positive bacterial infection around prostheses
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 2000Coagulase-negative staphylococci produce an exocellular glycolipid antigen which has potential as a serological marker of infection in bone. The value of this newly detected antigen was investigated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 15 patients with culture-proven infection of prostheses caused by Gram-positive bacteria.
