objective: rubella is a viral disease with minor morbidity, unless it is contracted by a pregnant woman in early pregnancy that leads to congenitalrubella syndromes. rubella occurrence during the first trimester leads to fetal death or severe congenital defects.present study was conducted to survey the protection level against rubella in the pregnant women of gilan in iran,to be used for the va...

background: primary antibody deficiency, the most common primary immunodeficiency disorder, represents a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions caused by a defect in any critical stage of b cell development and is characterized by impaired production of normal amounts of antigen-specific antibodies. objective: this retrospective study aimed at description and analysis of demographic, clinical, im...

A total of 31 cervical biopsy specimens were taken from 29 women attending a genitourinary medicine clinic, nine women (11 biopsy specimens) were known to have Chlamydia trachomatis cervicitis and 20 women were known to be free of chlamydial infection. The specimens were routinely processed to paraffin wax and stained by an antiChlamydia immunoperoxidase technique to localise the organisms. Of ...

Antibodies are essential tools of biomedical and biochemical researches. Polyclonal antibodies are produced against different epitopes of antigens. Purified F(ab')2 can be used for animal’s immunization to produce polyclonal antibodies. Human immunoglobulin G (IgG) was purified by ion exchange chromatography method. In all stages verification method of the purified antibodies was sod...

Abstract Background There is a decrease in vaccine-specific antibody to certain vaccine-preventable diseases in children after chemotherapy, but the frequency of non-immune patients is not clear. In the present case-control study, was taken under investigation protection level to Hepatitis B infection in children 6 months after completing chemotherapy. Materials and Methods In this study 6...

laboratory diagnosis of acute measles is usually achieved by serology assays for measle-specific igm antibody. for comparison of measle-specific igm antibody in saliva and serum, 95 paired blood and saliva samples were collected 1-14 days after the onset of rash. the specimens were tested for specific igm antibody by an igm antibody-capture enzyme immunoassay (eia). measles igm antibody was det...

after using 3 different generations of antibodies including human and non-human hyperimmune sera, monoclonal antibodies and chimeric antibodies, more recently a newer approach has been developed in which the antibody genes are cloned directly from a patient peripheral b-lymphocytes and expressed in a host like e. coli. in this study the candida albicans serotype a (nctc 3153) mannan was purifie...
