RETROSPECTIVE ESTIMATION FOR QUALITATIVE DETECTION OF COVID -19 (CORONA VIRUS) IN BLOOD SAMPLES THROUGH DOT ELISA

A novel corona virus 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak: review article

In 2019 a newly emerged coronavirus was detected by the Center for disease control (CDC) in China. Nucleic acid sequencing from nose and throat swab samples of patients revealed that it was like severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV). World Health Organization (WHO) named it coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and reported more than 100000 positive tests until March 2020 for C...

Comparison of Dot-ELISA with microbial culture for detection of Brucella spp. in clinical specimens

Definitive diagnosis of brucellosis is made by isolation of the causative agents, which is a timeconsumingprocedure. To evaluate the efficacy of Dot-ELISA for detecting brucellae in clinical samples, 94different specimens taken from animal origin were cultured on brucella selective culture media and colonieswere identified biochemically. The specimens were also examined after centrifugation by ...

Standardization of ELISA for Detection of Avian Influenza Virus Antibodies

Dot ELISA for antibody detection in giardiasis.

Giardia lamblia is a frequent pathogen in persistent diarrhoea. Both humoral and cellular immune responses are important in clearing the parasite and providing immunity. A rapid sensitive and specific serological test like dot ELISA could be useful for early detection of Giardia specific serum antibodies for routine diagnosis. This study reports the use of dot ELISA for the detection of Giardia...
