RESUMO
An important role in the pathogenesis of invasive group A streptococcal disease has been ascribed to the production of streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin A. We present a new technique for the purification of streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin A from Streptococcus pyogenes NY-5 supernate, which is highly efficient with respect to yield (35%), purity (> or = 99%), and time.
