Detection of Human Toxoplasma -Specific Immunoglobulins A, M, and G with a Recombinant Toxoplasma gondii Rop2 Protein

Detection of human Toxoplasma-specific immunoglobulins A, M, and G with a recombinant Toxoplasma gondii rop2 protein.

The Toxoplasma gondii rhoptry protein Rop2 was expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein containing 44 kDa of the 55-kDa mature Rop2, supplied with six histidyl residues at the N-terminal end (Rop2196-561). Humoral response during Toxoplasma infection of humans was analyzed by immunoglobulin G (IgG), IgA, and IgM enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with Rop2196-561 as the antigen substrat...

evaluation of recombinant sag1 protein for detection of toxoplasma gondii specific immunoglobulin m by elisa test

b ackground: toxoplasmosis is a serious disease in immunocompromised patients and pregnant women. differentiation of acute and chronic infection is a major challenge in serodiagnosis of the disease. since the aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic utility of recombinant sag1 (rec- sag1) for the detection of toxoplasma -specific igm antibodies in human sera, by an enzyme-linked immunosor...

Recombinant scFv Antibodies against P30 Surface Protein of Toxoplasma Gondii

Background & Aims: Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate, intracellular parasite, which is widely spread in the world. The parasite is able to infect all warm-blooded hosts including humans and farm animals. The infection in humans often occurs after the ingestion of raw or undercooked meat containing tissue cysts. Several methods have been applied to detect this parasite in contaminated foods. Reco...
