Hybrid Fe(3)O(4)@SiO(2)@PEG-Maltose MNPs were synthesized by SI-ATRP of branched PEG brushes on the surface and subsequent functionalization with hydrophilic maltose group, and the multifunctional materials were utilized for selective enrichment of N-linked glycopeptides from biological samples with high specifity, high sensitivity, and large binding capacity.

A multi-serovar ELISA based on the outer membrane Lipoprotein L41 (LipL41) of pathogenic Leptospira was developed to increase sensitivity by using a single test antigen. A sensitivity of 99 % and a specifity of 92 % could be achieved. The established diagnostic polymerase chain reaction is also able to detect fast and reliably pathogenic Leptospira in different clinical samples.

sarcocystosis has been reported from most parts of the world, including ruminant animals in iran. based on this, immunoelectrophoresis profile of sarcocystis and comparison between serum and necropsy findings to determine sensitivity and specifity of counterimmunoelectrophoresis (cie) was undertaken. for this purpose, serum was collected from a total number of 100 sheep. soluble antigen provide...

The aim of this study was to detect incidence of mastitis in an automatic milking system using serial information. Data from 112,000 milkings of the research dairy herd Karkendamm of the University of Kiel were available. The incidence of mastitis was defined both on therapies carried out and on weekly somatic cell count measurements. The time series of electric conductivity of quarter milk wer...

Netherton syndrome is a very rare disorder characterized with icthyosis, atopy, bamboo hair and intermittant aminoaciduria. The specifity of clinical and histopathological features of netherton syndrome is low in neonates and young infants who presents with predominating erythrodermia. Being the youngest infant presenting with the symptoms of infantile asthma we found it worth to report a six m...
