Mouse monoclonal [6231] antibody to Giardia lamblia.
Specificity
This antibody recognises Giardia lamblia, a flagellated protozoan parasite which infects the small intestines of humans and a variety of other mammalian hosts. Infection by G. lamblia results in giardiasis; a type of gastroenteritis that causes severe diarrhea and abdominal cramps. It has been suggested that chronic giardiasis can result in long-term growth retardation (Simsek. et al. 2004).
