Evaluation of a recombinant rhoptry protein 2 enzyme-linked immunoassay for the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis acquired during pregnancy
The aim of this study was to evaluate an enzyme-linked immunoassay with recombinant rhoptry protein 2 (ELISA-rROP2) for its ability to detect Toxoplasma gondii ROP2-specific IgG in samples from pregnant women. The study included 236 samples that were divided into groups according to serological screening profiles for toxoplasmosis: unexposed (n = 65), probable acute infection (n = 48), possible...
متن کاملevaluation of recombinant srs3 antigen for diagnosis of toxoplasmosis by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay
results the results showed that sensitivity and specificity were respectively 84.12% and 92% for recombinant protein srs3 and 92% and 96% for rsag1. conclusions recombinant proteins srs3 and rsag1 are promising antigens in diagnostic assays for detection of specific antibodies against t. gondii. background infections by the protozoan parasite toxoplasma gondii (t. gondii) are widely prevalent ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Pichia pastoris-expressed recombinant rhoptry protein 2 of Toxoplasma gondii for its application in diagnosis of toxoplasmosis.
Rhoptry protein 2 (ROP2) of Toxoplasma gondii is a rhoptry-secreted protein that plays a critical role in parasitophorous vacuole membrane formation during invasion. In previous studies, ROP2 has been shown to be efficient in triggering humoral and cell-mediated responses. High immunogenicity of ROP2 makes it a potential candidate for diagnosis and vaccination against toxoplasmosis. In this stu...
متن کاملEvaluation of a recombinant antigen-based enzyme immunoassay for the diagnosis of noninvasive aspergillosis.
Antibody detection is a key diagnostic tool for noninvasive aspergillosis (NIA) such as allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis and chronic pulmonary aspergillosis. Specific immunoprecipitin detection (IPD) is considered as the reference but lacks standardization and is time-consuming. To evaluate the performance of a new anti-Aspergillus fumigatus IgG enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kit using a recom...
