Quantification of anti-CtxB and anti-OSP responses:

Anti-CtxB and anti-OSP responses were measured by previously described isotype-specific ELISAs [32,33]. Briefly, 96-well plates (Nunc) were coated with 1 g/mL solution of bovine GM1 monosialoganglioside (Sigma) in 50mM carbonate buffer overnight. Next, 1g/mL CtxB in 0.1% BSA/PBS purified from the classical Inaba strain 569B (List Biological Laboratories) was layered onto the GM1-coated wells. …
