RESUMO
A single-step chromatography on Matrex-Gel Blue A has been employed to obtain soluble extracts containing some of the most important antigens of Bordetella pertussis, pertussis toxin (PT), filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA), pertactin (69-kDa outer membrane protein), fimbriae (FIM2 and FIM3) and adenylate cyclase (AC). Two supernatants, P19 (48.8 mg PT, 6.8 mg FHA, 17.3 mg AC, 13 mg FIM2 and 4.9 mg FIM33 per liter) and P21 (0.1 mg PT, 0.07 mg FHA, 0.46 mg FIM2 and 0.94 mg FIM3 per liter), resulting from bacteria grown in Stainer-Scholte medium, were submitted to chromatography. Fractions with the antigens were obtained after stepwise elution with 60 mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 6.0; 50 mM Tris-HC1, pH 7.4; 50 mM Tris-HC1, pH 7.4/0.75 M MgCl2; 50mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4/4 M MgCl2 and 4 M urea. Preparations from P19 (containing 4.05 µg PT, 8.14 µg FHA, 6.3 µg AC, 3.37 µg 69-kDA, 9.54 µg FIM2 and 2.23 µg FIM3) and P21 (with 0.175 µg PT, 0.28 µg PT, 0.28 µg FHA, 0.002 µg69-kDa, 0.005 µg FIM2 and 0.122 µg FIM3) were detoxified with glutaraldehyde and tested as an acellular pertussis vaccine. These products were non-toxic for mice and induced high levels of antibodies against purified pertussis antigens, as judged by ELISA
