Two-site enzyme immunoassay for alpha-fetoprotein in dried-blood samples collected on filter paper.
This is a method for measuring alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in eluates of dried-blood samples on filter paper by use of a simple, sensitive two-site enzyme immunoassay. The spot, 6 mm in diameter (equivalent to about 12 microL of whole blood), is incubated overnight with alkaline phosphatase conjugated to rabbit anti-AFP antibody in a tube containing a polystyrene bead coated with mouse monoclonal a...
متن کاملQuantification of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 RNA from dried plasma spots collected on filter paper.
To assess dried plasma spots (DPSs) as a source of material for virus quantification, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RNA levels were quantified in matched DPS and liquid plasma samples from 73 infected patients, including 5 neonates and 4 adult patients with acute HIV-1 infection. Quantifications were performed by commercially available assays (NASBA [nucleic acid sequence-based am...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Stability of Urea in Dried Blood Spots Collected and Stored on Filter Paper
The ability to use dry blood spots (DBSs) on filter paper for the analysis of urea levels could be an important diagnostic tool for areas that have limited access to laboratory facilities. We developed a method for the extraction and quantification of urea from DBSs that were stored on 3M Whatman filter paper and investigated the effect of long-term storage on the level of urea in DBSs. DBSs of...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Rapid PCR Test for Identification of Streptococcus agalactiae in Milk Samples Collected on Filter Paper Disks
Streptococcus (Strep.) agalactiae is one of the major pathogens of bovine mastitis and is the main cause of subclinical infection. This study attempted to develop a rapid PCR diagnosis procedure using milk samples collected on filter paper disks. Chromatographic filter paper was employed as the preservation media and kept at room temperature for one to four weeks. The revival rate of Strep. aga...
متن کاملEvaluation of three different DNA extraction methods from blood samples collected in dried filter paper in Plasmodium subpatent infections from the Amazon region in Brazil.
Asymptomatic Plasmodium infection is a new challenge for public health in the American region. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the best method for diagnosing subpatent parasitemias. In endemic areas, blood collection is hampered by geographical distances and deficient transport and storage conditions of the samples. Because DNA extraction from blood collected on filter paper is an effici...
