results a total of 205 blood samples obtained from diabetic patients (42 men and 163 women with age range 13 - 60 years) were examined for the presence of toxoplasma antibodies. among patients, 60 cases (29.3%) were seronegative and 145 patients (70.7%) were seropositive, included 53.145 (36.6%) (igg+, igm+) acute phase, 72.145 (49.6%) (igg+, igm-) chronic phase and 20.145 (13.8%) (igg-, igm+) ...

conclusions findings of this study demonstrate no significant difference between levels of h. pylori specific antibodies of iga, igg, anti-caga and the presence of pcos disorders, and also indicate that serologic testing is a sensitive method for the detection of h. pylori antibodies. the high prevalence of h. pylori positive antibody levels in both pcos and non-pcos patients can be probably as...

background because of the economic importance of the arab race horses and also the role of toxoplasma gondii and neospora spp. in abortion and reproductive failure of these animals, we decided to perform this study. objectives we designed this study to investigate the seroprevalence of anti-toxoplasma gondii and anti-neospora spp. antibodies in arab horses from 12 cities of khuzestan province i...

the aim of the present study was to evaluate the presence anti- e. coli, -rotavirus and -coronavirus, in calves' sera. a total of 184 calves under 1 month of age (84 diarrheic & 100 normal) was studied. serological tests including: direct elisa for detection of anti-k99 e. coli, - rotavirus and - coronavirus and tube agglutination test for detection anti-o157 e. coli, antibodies were used....

background: we have previously reported that a 31 kda protein was screened from the excretory-secretory (es) proteins of tichinella spiralis muscle larvae (ml) by immunoproteomics using early infection sera, and the gene encoding a 31 kda protein from t. spiralis was cloned and expressed in an e. coli expression system. in this study, the recombinant 31 kda antigens were used for detection of a...
