Evaluation of HIV Indeterminate Confirmatory Tests\' Results in Blood Donors in Northeast of Iran
Background and Aims: Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is spreading rapidly among the people worldwide. Infection with this virus leads to immune suppression and finally acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Early HIV detection is dependent on antibody screening against virus by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Some confirmatory tests such as Western Blot and Recombinant Immunobl...
متن کاملThe study of seroprevalence of human cytomegalovirus in healthy blood donors referring to Fars blood bank
Introduction: Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is most often asymptomatic in immuno-competent individuals and has lifelong latency especially in leukocytes. However, CMV is a major cause of infection and death in immuno-compromised patients. Transfusion transmitted HCMV (TT-HCMV) can cause serious morbidity and mortality in certain patients who are at risk. In this study, we evaluated t...
متن کاملScreening blood donors for hereditary hemochromatosis: decision analysis model based on a 30-year database.
BACKGROUND & AIMS The high prevalence, morbidity, premature death, and benefit of early diagnosis and treatment make hemochromatosis a prime target for screening in the white population. Decision analysis techniques were used to compare the outcome, utility, and incremental cost savings of a plan to screen voluntary blood donors for hemochromatosis. METHODS The screening strategy includes seq...
متن کاملCross-linking hybridization assay for direct detection of factor V Leiden mutation.
A nucleic acid photocross-linking technology was used in the development of a direct assay for factor V Leiden, a point mutation in the factor V gene (G1691A) that is the most common inherited risk factor for thrombosis. This cross-linking hybridization assay included two allele-specific capture probes and six signal-generating reporter probes; all were modified with a photoactivated cross-link...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Presence of Anti-Toxoplasma Antibodies in Blood Donors’ Presenting to Blood Transfusion Center, Bushehr, Iran
Background: If blood donors are infected with toxoplasmosis, they often have no obvious clinical symptoms due to a healthy immune system, but the Toxoplasma is still present in their white blood cells. Blood recipients are also often people with various anemia or defective immune systems. Therefore, receiving such blood will increase the risk of infection and acute form of toxoplasmosis. The ai...
