This antibody binds the same epitope as clone FB11 and has a higher antigen-binding bivalent avidity than internally binding antiOAg mAb. This antibody is capable of detecting F. tularensis SchuS4 strain in an ELISA. It is also capable of agglutinating F. tularensis SchuS4 and live vaccine strain. This antibody also binds strongly to both long and short lipopolysaccharide chains in western blot assays. In efficacy studies with mice infected intranasally with the highly virulent F. tularensis strain SchuS4, N62 prolonged survival and reduced blood bacterial burden (PMID: 23844703)
