A group of five tests utilizing wheat germ and soybean lectins and chromogenic substrates (orthonitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside, gamma-glutamyl-beta-naphthylamide, and prolyl-beta-naphthylamide derivatives) was used as a rapid (30-min) method for the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The rapid method agreed with Minitek test results for all 126 N. gonorrhoeae isolates and all 39 non...

Determination of streptokinase activity is usually accomplished through two assay methods: a) Clot lysis, b) Chromogenic substrate assay. In this study the biological activity of two streptokinase products, namely Streptase®, which is a native product and Heberkinasa®, which is a recombinant product, was determined against the third international reference standard using the two forementioned a...

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is an ancillary method, widely used in pathologist practice, that allows to identify diagnostic and prognostic/predictive therapeutic response protein markers on tissue samples by the use of specific monoclonal antibodies chromogenic substances guarantee visualization antibody–antigene binding complex under light microscope [...]

conclusions in this study, snpcr was specific and more sensitive than the chromogenic medium chromagar™ candida for the detection of candida spp. insofar as it failed to identify only a few isolates. materials and methods we used snpcr with universal and species-specific primers to detect candida species in the culture of clinical isolates. by using universal primers, we carried out the amplifi...

Silica nanoparticles functionalized with chromogenic spirobenzopyran and thiourea subunits show selective colour changes in the presence of certain long-chain carboxylates.
