Detection of Abrin Holotoxin Using Novel Monoclonal Antibodies
Abrin, a member of the ribosome-inactivating protein family, is produced by the Abrus precatorius plant. Having the potential to pose a severe threat to both human and animal health, abrin is classified as a Select Agent by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. However, an immunoassay that is specific for intact abrin holotoxin has not yet been reported. In this study, seven new mon...
متن کاملMonoclonal Antibodies
SUMMARY Monoclonal Antibodies are identical antibodies and Can be generated in ultimated amounts by countinuos cultures of single antibody- secreting cells. These cell lines are produced by cell fusion of normal lymphocytes to cells of a myeloma tumor cell line, which confers on the antibody producing hybrid cell, immortality and the ability grow as atumor in animals. monoclonal antibodies c...
متن کاملIdentification of Leishmania species using monoclonal antibodies in Isfahan
Background: Isfahan is one of the major foci of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Iran. According to the epidemiological studies, both urban and rural forms have been reported in Isfahan. Accurate identification and characterization of Leishmania is essential for the control of the disease. Several different molecular techniques for Leishmania identification are developed including use of monoclonal a...
متن کاملNovel Phage Display-Derived Anti-Abrin Antibodies Confer Post-Exposure Protection against Abrin Intoxication
Abrin toxin is a type 2 ribosome inactivating glycoprotein isolated from the seeds of Abrus precatorius (jequirity pea). Owing to its high toxicity, relative ease of purification and accessibility, it is considered a biological threat agent. To date, there is no effective post-exposure treatment for abrin poisoning and passive immunization remains the most effective therapy. However, the effect...
متن کاملdevelopment of a sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of hepatitis b surface antigen using novel monoclonal antibodies
hepatitis b virus (hbv) infection is the 10th leading cause of death worldwide. the most important diagnostic and screening marker for hbv infection is hepatitis b surface antigen (hbsag), and the most widely used hbsag screening test is enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa). in this study, an elisa assay has been developed for detection of hbsag using two novel monoclonal antibodies (mab) ...
