PRESERVATION OF IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE

Immunofluorescence Pattern of Autoimmune Bullous Diseases in Iranian Patients

Background & Objective: Autoimmune bullous diseases are associated with autoimmunity against structural components in the skin and mucous membranes. Autoantibodies are against the intercellular junctions in pemphigus disease and hemidesmosomal unchoring complex in pemphigiod diseases and epidermolysis bullosa aquisita. The tissue-bound and circulating serum autoantibodies can be detect...

Immunofluorescence Method for The Detection of Non-Pathogenic Influenza Virus

The direct F.A. Method has been used for diffe­rentiation of virulent and avirulent lines of influenza viruses. A positive fluorescence was obtained indi­cating the level of virus in the tissues, sorbing with dried mouse powder helped to reduce non-specific staining. The virulent line showed the greatest num­ber of fluorescent cells with the peak at 10 hours. the non-virulent lines showed a gra...

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...
