Transglutaminases in Crohn's disease.
Transglutaminases are a family of Ca-dependent enzymes involved in various biological events. Circulating transglutaminase (factor XIIIa) is decreased in blood of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases. There is evidence that factor XIIIa and tissue type transglutaminase, present in cell cytosol, bind to various proteins of the extracellular matrix. This study examined the value of serum tra...
متن کاملPerformance of a new-generation chemiluminescent assay for hepatitis B surface antigen.
BACKGROUND The usual criteria for analysis of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) are detection of HBsAg and result confirmation by antibody neutralization. We observed that with the Immulite 2000 HBsAg assay [Diagnostics Product Corporation (DPC)] a relatively high percentage of weakly reactive (WR) samples did not pass the neutralization step. METHODS For each of 3 lots of Immulite 2000 HBs...
متن کاملDevelopment of Chemiluminescent Lateral Flow Assay for the Detection of Nucleic Acids
Rapid, sensitive detection methods are of utmost importance for the identification of pathogens related to health and safety. Herein we report the development of a nucleic acid sequence-based lateral flow assay which achieves a low limit of detection using chemiluminescence. On-membrane enzymatic signal amplification is used to reduce the limit of detection to the sub-femtomol level. To demonst...
متن کاملEvaluation of a novel automated chemiluminescent assay system for antimicrobial susceptibility testing.
The newly developed Rapid Lumi Eiken/IS60 (RL/IS60) system automatically determines MICs by detecting chemiluminescence produced in the reaction of a chemiluminescent probe and oxygen metabolites from living microorganisms. The present study evaluated this system for accuracy in antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Chemiluminescence intensities after 4 h of cultivation of clinically important ...
متن کاملChemiluminescent labeled-antibody assay for thyroxin in serum, with magnetic separation of the solid-phase.
A chemiluminescent labeled-antibody immunoassay has been developed for measurement of total thyroxin (T4) in serum. Monoclonal antibodies to T4 labeled with a chemiluminescent acridinium ester are used. Serum samples are incubated with the labeled antibodies and a thyroxin-rabbit immunoglobulin conjugate, then reacted with magnetizable particles containing sheep anti-rabbit immunoglobulin. The ...
