Passively acquired challenge immunity to enterotropic coronavirus in mice

Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccines Mice Immunized with Live Attenuated Humoral But Not Cell-Mediated Immunity in Passively Acquired Antibodies Suppress

Acquired immunity to malaria.

Naturally acquired immunity to falciparum malaria protects millions of people routinely exposed to Plasmodium falciparum infection from severe disease and death. There is no clear concept about how this protection works. There is no general agreement about the rate of onset of acquired immunity or what constitutes the key determinants of protection; much less is there a consensus regarding the ...

Modification of acquired immunity in mice by imipenem/cilastatin.

The immunomodulating properties of antimicrobial drugs may have important implications for clinical practice, particularly for those patients whose immune system has been compromised. In this study, we assessed the influence of different treatments with a beta-lactam antibiotic (imipenem/cilastatin) on several acquired immune responses of BALB/c mice; splenocyte responses to specific mitogens a...

Mice Susceptible to SARS Coronavirus

Murine models of severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) will greatly advance research on this emerging virus. When BALB/c mice were simultaneously inoculated intranasally and orally, replication of SARS-CoV was found in both lung and intestinal tissue.

Recognize 3D objects with passively acquired imagery

Both military and industrial applications can use automatic object recognition, which seeks and identifies specific objects. The task is complicated by distortion and noise captured by the sensors, but techniques have been developed to improve the recognition performance. Many of these use 2D object recognition, but there is growing interest in developing a 3D system. If one wants to automate o...
