Reagents:

…LF, EF, PA83, and PA63 were obtained from List Biological Laboratories (Campbell, CA). …

Animal care and study protocol:

…Total LF and LTx analysis was determined in two animals, 16N and 89N, over the course of infection. …

Antibody specificity:

Specificity of anti-PA and anti-LF MBs was demonstrated for LTx, LF, and PA. PA63/LF were mixed at a w/w ratio of 10:1 to form LTx complex. PA83 and LF were mixed as a non-complexed control. Mixtures were incubated at room temperature (RT) for 30 min. LF, PA63, PA83, LF/PA63, and LF/PA83 at 0.5 g LF and 5 g PA83 or PA63 were immunoprecipitated with anti-LF and anti-PA MBs, …

Lethal toxin standard preparation and characterization:

LTx was formed by mixing PA63 and LF at w/w ratios of 0:1 to 60:1 PA63/LF, …
