ABSTRACT:
Hybridomas secreting monoclonal antibody having specificity for and cytolytic against Trichomonas vaginalis are provided. The cytolytic monoclonal antibodies specific for T. vaginalis are useful in detecting the presence of T. vaginalis among a general population of micro-organisms found in a biological sample. Detection of the T. vaginalis is evaluated by observing cell lysis of T. vaginalis after contacting the cultured micro-organisms with the cytolytic monoclonal antibody specific for T. vaginalis. Therapeutic uses of the monoclonal antibody as an immunological anti-microbial reagent for the treatment of T. vaginalis infection are also disclosed.
