ABSTRACT:
Immunoadsorbent combinations for the detection and diagnosis of group B streptococcus polysaccharide antigen, comprising an insoluble carrier, a capture agent having an affinity for specifically binding to the trirhamnose epitope of group B streptococcus antigen and having the formula .alpha.-L-Rhap(1.fwdarw.2)-.alpha.-L-Rhap(1.fwdarw.2).alpha.-Rhap- 1- wherein Rhap is rhamnose, and an antigen marker agent having an affinity for binding to monorhamnose epitope of group B streptococcus polysaccharide antigen of formula .alpha.-L-Rhap-1- when the group B streptococcus polysaccharide is bound to the carrier. An immunoassay method test kit and polyclonal antibody are also described.
