The distribution of adenovirus antibodies in normal children.

چکیده
INTRODUCTION Population surveys for the presence of adenovirus complement-fixing (C.F.) and neutralizing antibodies suggest that certain serotypes, particularly types 1 and 2, are endemic. Huebner, Rowe, Ward, Parrott & Betts (1954) estimated that, of children in Washington in the age group 6-11 months, over 50 % had antibodies against one or more serotypes and 30 % had antibody against type 1 or type 2. The percentages with neutralizing antibody against one or more viruses rose with age. Jordan, Badger & Dingle (1958) carried out a survey of 81 children in Cleveland over the first 5 years of life. This confirmed the endemic nature of adenovirus infection. Whether or not a similar state of affairs exists in children of Great Britain, has never been determined. A study, similar to that of Huebner et al. (1954), is given here from Sheffield.

The prevalence of Adenovirus was determined among children with gastroenteritis/ diarrhea in Warri, Southern, Nigeria. Adenovirus was detected using a lateral flow immunochromatographic test kit (Gastro Vir-Strip, Coris Bioconcept, Belgium). The prevalence of Adenovirus was 11 (14.7%) and there were no association with age and gender of subjects. There is need for routine screening of Adenoviru...
متن کاملDistribution of I-125-IgG in normal and induced inflammation in mice [Persian]
Antibodies are a diverse class of glycoproteins that specially bind with antigen and elicit a number of secondary responses in vivo. Most of the applications of antibodies in basic research diagnosis and immunotherapy rely on labeling of the antibody with radiopharmaceuticals. Radiolabeled antibodies are a new class of imaging agents for the detection of sites of disease. True biodistribu...

Many different radiolabeled antibodies have been used for radioimmunotherapy and radioimmunoscintigraphy of human diseases in animal experiments. In order to study the in vivo tissue distribution of antibody, we labeled human nonspecific polyclonal IgG with Na125I using chloramine-T method. An animal model was developed by injecting turpentine in the posterior left thigh of Balb/c mice. Tissue ...
