A dot-ELISA test using a Gnathostoma spinigerum recombinant matrix metalloproteinase protein for the serodiagnosis of human gnathostomiasis.
Gnathostomiasis caused by Gnathostoma spinigerum, is a hazardous food- borne helminthic zoonosis, and is endemic especially in developing countries in Asia. Definitive diagnosis, relying upon identification of worms from human tissues or body, is rarely accomplished. Consequently, sensitive supporting tools such as serological tests have been used widely. But these methods are time con- suming,...

متن کاملDesign and optimization of Dot-blot ELISA system using specific antigens for simple and rapid diagnosis of glanders
Introduction Glanders is one of the oldest contagious and dangerous zoonotic diseases manifesting ulcerative granulomatous lesions on the skin and mucous membranes. Early methods possessing desirable sensitivity and specificity is important to diagnose the disease considering the just only one case report and preventing disease by identification and eradication. The present study was aimed to ...
متن کاملthe use of recombinant 31 kda antigens of trichinella spiralis for serodiagnosis of experimental trichinellosis.
background: we have previously reported that a 31 kda protein was screened from the excretory-secretory (es) proteins of tichinella spiralis muscle larvae (ml) by immunoproteomics using early infection sera, and the gene encoding a 31 kda protein from t. spiralis was cloned and expressed in an e. coli expression system. in this study, the recombinant 31 kda antigens were used for detection of a...
متن کاملProtective immunity of 56-kDa type-specific antigen of Orientia tsutsugamushi causing scrub typhus.
Scrub typhus, caused by infection with Orientia tsutsugamushi, is a mite-borne zoonotic disease endemic to the Asian-Pacific region. In Korea, the incidence of this disease has increased with climate changes, and over 10,000 cases of infection were reported in 2013. Although this infection is treatable with antibiotics such as doxycycline and azithromycin, an effective prophylactic vaccine agai...
