Indirect Immunofluorescence Assay for the Simultaneous Detection of Antibodies against Clinically Important Old and New World Hantaviruses
In order to detect serum antibodies against clinically important Old and New World hantaviruses simultaneously, multiparametric indirect immunofluorescence assays (IFAs) based on biochip mosaics were developed. Each of the mosaic substrates consisted of cells infected with one of the virus types Hantaan (HTNV), Puumala (PUUV), Seoul (SEOV), Saaremaa (SAAV), Dobrava (DOBV), Sin Nombre (SNV) or A...
متن کاملIndirect immunofluorescence test for the detection of Aspergillus fumigatus antibodies.
An indirect immunofluorescence test was both sensitive and specific in detecting IgG antibodies to Aspergillus fumigatus. The test revealed a significant increase in titre of antibodies in patients with the allergic or mycetomal forms of pulmonary aspergillosis.
متن کاملEvaluation of an indirect immunofluorescence assay for detection of immunoglobulin M (IgM) and IgG antibodies against yellow fever virus.
The first commercial indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) using Euroimmun Biochip technology was evaluated for the serodiagnosis of immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgM antibodies against yellow fever virus (YFV) and was compared with the plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT), which is currently the gold standard test for YFV. An overall correlation between the tests of 98.7% was established...
متن کاملSimultaneous detection and differentiation of anti-Helicobacter pylori antibodies by flow microparticle immunofluorescence assay.
Helicobacter pylori is the key pathogen for gastroduodenal diseases. The clinical outcome of H. pylori infection is influenced by the presence of strain-specific virulence factors that are usually detected by the presence of specific anti-H. pylori antibodies in serum. Apart from the detection of these antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), it is desirable to obtain additional...
متن کاملDetection of Cryptosporidium oocysts in human fecal specimens by an indirect immunofluorescence assay with monoclonal antibodies.
An indirect fluorescence assay (IFA) with monoclonal antibodies developed for the detection of Cryptosporidium oocysts in fecal smears (Meridian Diagnostics, Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio) was compared with the Zeihl-Neelsen-modified acid-fast stain (MAFS) in 119 human fecal specimens collected between 1984 and 1987. The sensitivity of the IFA was 100%; all 56 specimens positive by MAFS exhibited fluo...
