Popis: A homogeneous extracellular heat-stable proteinase from Pseudomonas fluorescens AH-70 was used to prepare antiserum in rabbits. The rabbit antiserum was used to study the antigenic relationship of the proteinases from 26 psychrotrophic Pseudomonas spp. isolated from raw milk. The inhibition of the proteinases by the antiserum, the gel precipitin reactions and the use of a double-antibody sandwich ELISA, revealed that proteinase AH-70 is immunologically related to proteinases from 8/26 other Pseudomonas strains. These results also indicate that the immunological techniques for the detection of proteolytic enzymes in raw milk require antibody preparations of broader specificity.
