Related Product Information for Streptolysin O, Plasma enzyme
Streptolysin O, isolated from human plasma. Streptolysin-O (SLO) is a bacterial protein that forms an alpha helix and is toxic to eukaryotic cells. Its toxic effect is due to the protein's ability to bind to cholesterol and form holes in the plasma membrane of cells. This ability can be utilized in the laboratory to create holes in the plasma membrane but not other membranes.
Streptolysin is a hemolysin produced by group A streptococci. In an infected individual streptolysin O acts as a protein antigen, and the patient mounts an antibody response. A rise in anti-streptolysin O level begins about 1 week after infection and peaks 2-3 weeks later. In the absence of complications or reinfection, the anti-streptolysin O ASO titer will usually fall to preinfection levels within 6-12 months. Both clinical and laboratory findings should be correlated in reaching a identification.
Streptococcal infections are caused by bacteria known as Streptococcus. There are several disease-causing strains of streptococci (groups A, B, C, D, and G), which are identified by their behavior, chemistry, and appearance. Each group causes specific types of infections and symptoms. These antibody tests are useful for group A streptococci. Group A streptococci are the most virulent species for humans and are the cause of strep throat, tonsillitis, wound and skin infections, blood infections (septicemia), scarlet fever, pneumonia, rheumatic fever, Sydenham's chorea (formerly called St. Vitus' dance), and glomerulonephritis.
Supplied as a concentrate for research and manufacturing.

Product Notes
The Streptolysin O, Plasma (Catalog #AAA653741) is an Enzyme and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Streptolysin O, Plasma, Enzyme" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
