Magnetic separation techniques in diagnostic microbiology.
The principles of magnetic separation aided by antibodies or other specific binding molecules have been used for isolation of specific viable whole organisms, antigens, or nucleic acids. Whereas growth on selective media may be helpful in isolation of a certain bacterial species, immunomagnetic separation (IMS) technology can isolate strains possessing specific and characteristic surface antige...
متن کاملDetection of Specific Antigen in Sv40-transformed Cells by Immunofluorescence
With an immunofluorescent technique involving the use of serum of hamsters with SV40 tumors, nuclear fluorescence was detected in each of five cell lines, derived from four mammalian species, transformed by SV40 virus. Essentially all nuclei, including those of multinuclear cells, were fluorescent-stainable. Serum of hamsters bearing SV40 tumors was also found to give nuclear fluorescence in su...
متن کاملImmunofluorescence techniques.
anTiBOdies An antibody is a protein complex produced by B cells that initiates an immune response against a target antigen. The basic organization of an antibody includes two functional domains that, together, resemble the letter Y (Figure 1, left). The Fab (fragment having the antigen binding site) domain makes up the arms of the Y, and at the end of each arm is a variable region responsible f...
متن کاملDiagnostic Accuracy of Polyclonal Stool Antigen for Detection of Helicobacter Pylori Infection in Children
Introduction: Helicobacter pylori infection has various clinical features. One of the most common presentations of this infection is upper abdominal pain. Complications such as gastritis, gastric ulcer, gastric carcinoma and MALT lymphoma mandate early diagnosis of H.P infection by a low cost and non invasive manner. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic role of H.P stool antige...
متن کاملThe Localization of Australia Antigen by Immunofluorescence
We have studied the localization of Australia antigen, a particulate substance associated with hepatitis, by means of the fluorescent antibody technique. Preparations were made from 61 liver biopsy specimens taken from patients with infectious hepatitis, serum hepatitis, and a variety of other diseases. When tested with fluorescein-conjugated rabbit anti-Au(1) antisera all 26 patients who had A...
