Immunofluorescent Studies on <i>Trichophyton Asteroides</i> Compared with <i>Trichophyton Interdigitale</i>

Immunofluorescent Studies in Human Leukemia1

High-speed (80,000 X g) pellets of plasma from leukemic patients and from normal individuals were used to prepare antisera in rabbits. The leukemic plasma pellets contained virus-like particles as determined by electron microscopy, whereas similar particles were not observed in the normal pellets. Globulin fractions from six antisera to normal pellets (NPA) and six antisera to leukemic pellets ...

Wegener's granulomatosis. Electron microscopic and immunofluorescent studies.

We report a case of classic Wegener's granulomatosis. Direct immunofluorescent study showed finely granular deposits of IgG and IgM in some of the alveolar walls, and of IgM in the maxillary sinus arteries. Electron-microscopic study of the lung and maxillary sinus showed intravascular fibrin, but failed to demonstrate electron-dense deposits in the blood vessel walls. Our patient also had circ...

Immunofluorescent Studies in Adult Celiac Disease.

Two immunofluorescent methods compared with a radial immunodiffusion method for measurement of serum immunoglobulins.

We found high correlations when the values for immunoglobulins G, A, and M, obtained from the analysis of a group of 50 or more human sera by a measured-time radial immunodiffusion method, were compared to values found by two new commercial immunofluorescent methods. The Fiax and the Immuno-Fluor systems make use of fluorescently labeled antibodies and solid-phase immunoadsorbents and off...

Immunofluorescent Studies of the Histopathogenesis of Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus Infection

LCM virus antigen was visualized in infected tissue cultures and mouse tissues by the direct immunofluorescent procedure. In all instances, antigen was localized to the cytoplasm. In intracerebrally infected mice, antigen was almost completely restricted to meninges, choroid plexus, and ependyma; at no time were neurons involved. Mice infected by intraperitoneal inoculation of a viscerotropic s...
