چکیده

The S1 genome segment of reovirus is linked to type specificity as determined by neutralization antibody. This gene segment codes for a minor outer capsid polypeptide (sigma1). Therefore, sigma1 is the peptide responsible for induction of neutralization antibody and confers type specificity. This biologic property of reovirus was defined using hybrid recombinants clones between reovirus types 1 and 3 and 2 and 3.

Detection of Herpes Simplex Virus Antibodies Using the Whole Virus and Recombinant gD

Background and Aims: Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) remains a potentially serious health problem world wide. All infected people, including asymptomatic ones, are potential sources for virus transmission. Virus envelope contains at least 13 glycoproteins, which glycoprotein D is the major target of immune responses. The aim of this study was development of a specific method that is a more...

A Sensitive Neutralization Assay for Influenza C Viruses Based on the Acetylesterase Activity HEF Glycoprotein

Influenza C virus possesses specific neuraminate-O-acetylesterase as a receptor-destroying function. This enzymatic activity of the viral glycoprotein HEF (Hemagglutinin, esterase activity and fusion factor) can be visualized in situ by the use of distinct color substrates. Hereby the localization, as well as the quantity of synthesized HEF protein is detectable. We further developed the estera...

Seroepidemiology of Reovirus in Healthy Dogs in Six Prefectures in Japan

Reovirus infection is common in mammals. However, seroepidemiological data of reovirus neutralizing antibodies are limited in dogs. In this study, sera of 65 healthy dogs from six prefectures across Japan were tested for neutralizing antibodies against reovirus serotype 1 strain Lang (T1L), serotype 2 strain Amy (T2A) and serotype 3 strain Dearing (T3D) using plaque reduction neutralization tes...

Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Sliding Mode Based Genetic Algorithm Control System to Control of a pH Neutralization Process

In this paper, an adaptive neuro fuzzy sliding mode based genetic algorithm (ANFSGA) controlsystem is proposed for a pH neutralization system. In pH reactors, determination and control of pH isa common problem concerning chemical-based industrial processes due to the non-linearity observedin the titration curve. An ANFSGA control system is designed to overcome the complexity of precisecontrol o...
