The Fim3 Antibody (PACO34266) is a polyclonal antibody designed for research involving Fim3, a protein involved in bacterial adhesion and colonization. The antibody is raised in rabbits and is highly reactive with Fim3 from various bacterial strains. It is validated for use in different applications such as Western blot, immunofluorescence, and flow cytometry.Fim3 is a critical virulence factor in bacterial pathogens, particularly in biofilm formation and host colonization.
Understanding the function and regulation of Fim3 is crucial for developing strategies to combat bacterial infections and developing vaccines. This antibody enables researchers to detect and analyze Fim3 in different bacterial strains, making it an invaluable tool for studying bacterial pathogenesis and developing new therapeutic approaches.

Bordetella pertussis is the causative agent of whooping cough. An essential step in the disease process is the attachment of the bacteria to the ciliated epithelium of the respiratory tract, enabling the organism to resist normal host-clearance mechanisms. It is unclear which bacterial cell surface component are responsible for adherence but the fimbriae of B.pertussis are prime candidates for being involved in this process.
