چکیده
Idescribea simple enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the quantitation of Factor VIll-related antigen in plasma with use of commercially available peroxidase-labeled antiserum and solid-phase support. Regression analysis of 85 plasma samples analyzed by this technique (y) and by a commonly used electroimmunoassay (Anal. Biochem. 15: 45-52, 1966) (x) gave the equation y = 0.223 + 0.77x (r = 0.973). The present method was also compared with enzyme immunoassay in which a phosphatase-labeled antiserum prepared in our laboratory was used; the correlation between the two assays was very good. The simplicity and specificity of the ELISA technique should make it a useful alternative to the more difficult and time-consuming Laurell method.

Selective Absence of Large Forms of Factor Vill/von Willebrand Factor in Acquired von Willebrand’s Syndrome. Response to Transfusion
A previously healthy elderly man with mucocutaneous bleeding was found to have a benign monoclonal lgG gammapathy associated with criteria for severe von Willebrand disease (Factor VIII procoagulant activity, Factor-VIII-related antigen, and ristocetin cofactor activity, <10% of normal). Associated qualitative abnormalities of factor VIII/von Willebrand factor were demonstrated by radiocrossed ...
متن کاملGains from diversification on convex combinations: A majorization and stochastic dominance approach
By incorporating both majorization theory and stochastic dominance theory, this paper presents a general theory and a unifying framework for determining the diversification preferences of risk-averse investors and conditions under which they would unanimously judge a particular asset to be superior. In particular, we develop a theory for comparing the preferences of different convex combination...
متن کاملImproved immunogenicity of tetanus toxoid by Brucella abortus S19 LPS adjuvant.
BACKGROUND Adjuvants are used to increase the immunogenicity of new generation vaccines, especially those based on recombinant proteins. Despite immunostimulatory properties, the use of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as an adjuvant has been hampered due to its toxicity and pyrogenicity. Brucella abortus LPS is less toxic and has no pyrogenic properties compared to LPS from other gram negati...
متن کاملSteady electrodiffusion in hydrogel-colloid composites: macroscale properties from microscale electrokinetics.
A rigorous microscale electrokinetic model for hydrogel-colloid composites is adopted to compute macroscale profiles of electrolyte concentration, electrostatic potential, and hydrostatic pressure across membranes that separate electrolytes with different concentrations. The membranes are uncharged polymeric hydrogels in which charged spherical colloidal particles are immobilized and randomly d...
متن کاملPerturbative Analysis of Dynamical Localisation
In this paper we extend previous results on convergent perturbative solutions of the Schrödinger equation of a class of periodically timedependent two-level systems. The situation treated here is particularly suited for the investigation of two-level systems exhibiting the phenomenon of (approximate) dynamical localisation. We also present a convergent perturbative expansion for the secular fre...
