Pitfalls in immunoblot detection of Aspergillus antigens associated with invasive infection.
Serial urine samples were collected from 33 neutropenic patients, 10 of whom developed invasive aspergillosis (IA) while undergoing bone marrow transplantation or remission induction therapy for leukemia. Concentrated urine samples from the infected patients were subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, blotted, and then incubated with antiserum raised to a cell wall extract of Aspergil...
متن کاملImmunoblot detection of antigens in immunoprecipitates.
Co-immunoprecipitation of antigens from cell or tissue extracts is used in a wide variety of experimental systems to corroborate the existence of authentic protein-protein interactions in vivo. Typically, stable protein-protein associations are detected by immunoprecipitation with antibodies specific for one protein, followed by immunoblot analysis with antibodies against potential interacting ...
متن کاملAspergillus antigens associated with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis.
Among the molds causing allergy, Aspergillus fumigatus (Af) constituted a major species present both indoors and outdoors. The antigens both secreted and bound to hyphae and conidia have been isolated for immunodiagnosis of allergic aspergillosis. The crude extracts have been used to demonstrate IgE antibody in vitro and for skin testing. The crude extracts contain many antigenic and non-antige...
متن کاملImmunoblot analysis of antigens associated with Haemophilus ducreyi using serum from immunised rabbits.
Sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting were used to characterise isolates of Haemophilus ducreyi. Isolates of H ducreyi were heterogeneous in protein composition, but isolates from single outbreaks appeared similar both in protein profiles and antigenic analysis. Rabbits immunised with H ducreyi responded with a vigorous humoral immune response in which mu...
متن کاملDetection of immunoglobulins G and A to Aspergillus fumigatus by immunoblot analysis for monitoring Aspergillus-induced lung diseases.
The aim of the study was to investigate whether patients with Aspergillus-induced lung disease can be monitored by immunoblot analysis to detect antibodies to Aspergillus fumigatus (Af). Immunoblotting was performed by incubating 57 longitudinally collected sera from 13 patients on nitrocellulose sheets, blotted with Af antigen, separated by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electropho...
