Our Treponemes were originally sourced from leading GUM clinics in London in the 1970’s, whilst it is possible that the bug may have changed over time, it is our policy to replenish our seed stock to ensure we have the most current strains infecting the population. Several UK, USA and ASIAN treponema pallidum lines are held in our seed stocks, these are the current Nichols strain Treponema pallidum bugs infecting these continents.
We hold several cell lines of the Nichols strain of Treponema pallidum in secure offsite Liquid Nitrogen stores at two sites for use to seed production batches.
With over 30 years of experience refining production processes we have developed two key purity grades of antigen.
- TP 1 PLUS+ a cleaner harvest using refined processes suited for ELISA.
- TP 2 PLUS+ A superior antigen for use in TPHA manufacture containing background (ballast) cells of immune response which protects the treponemes during sonication during kit manufacture.
