Application of a real-time PCR method for detecting and monitoring hookworm Necator americanus infections in Southern China.
OBJECTIVE To develop a quantitative PCR method for detecting hookworm infection and quantification. METHODS A real-time PCR method was designed based on the intergenic region II of ribosomal DNA of the hookworm Necator americanus. The detection limit of this method was compared with the microscopy-based Kato-Katz method. The real-time PCR method was used to conduct an epidemiological survey o...
متن کاملNecator americanus and Helminth Co-Infections: Further Down-Modulation of Hookworm-Specific Type 1 Immune Responses
BACKGROUND Helminth co-infection in humans is common in tropical regions of the world where transmission of soil-transmitted helminths such as Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, and the hookworms Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale as well as other helminths such as Schistosoma mansoni often occur simultaneously. METHODOLOGY We investigated whether co-infection with another h...

ساخت الکترودهاِی اصلاح شده ِیکِی از چالشهاِی همِیشگِی در دانش شیمِی بوِیژه شیمِی تجزیه مِی باشد ،که با در نظر گرفتن سادگِی ساخت، کاربردی بودن و ارزان بودن روش مِی توان به باارزش بودن چنِین سنسورهاِی پِی برد.آنچه که در ادامه آورده شده به ساخت و کاربرد الکترودهاِی اصلاح شده با استفاده از نانو ذرات در اندازه گِیرِی ولتامترِی آهن وکادمِیم اشاره دارد. کار اول اختصاص دارد به ساخت الکترود خمِیر کربن اصلاح شده با لِیگاند داِ...
15 صفحه اولProteolytic degradation of hemoglobin in the intestine of the human hookworm Necator americanus.
Blood-feeding parasites use mechanistically distinct proteases to digest hemoglobin (Hb), often as multienzyme cooperative cascades. We investigated the roles played by 3 distinct proteases from adults of the human hookworm Necator americanus. The aspartic protease Na-APR-1 and the cysteine protease Na-CP-3 were expressed in catalytically active form in yeast, and the metalloprotease Na-MEP-1 w...
