Mouse monoclonal antibodies were raised against recombinant Salmonella typhi 36-kDa porin monomer. Specificities of 16 monoclonal antibodies were analyzed as reactivity patterns in dot immunobinding and Western blot (immunoblot) assays using isolated outer membrane proteins of gram-negative bacteria and cloned purified S. typhi porin monomers and trimers. Four monoclonal antibodies were specific for Salmonella spp.
