Characterization and Protective Activity of Monoclonal Antibodies Directed against <i>Streptococcus suis</i> Serotype 2 Capsular Polysaccharide Obtained Using a Glycoconjugate

<i>Streptococcus suis</i> serotype 2 is an encapsulated bacterium and an important swine pathogen. Opsonizing antibody responses targeting capsular polysaccharides (CPSs) are protective against extracellular pathogens. To elucidate the protective activity of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs)...
