antivenoms have been used successfully for more than a century and up to now constitute the only effective treatment for snakebites .the production of antivenin started long time ago when the calmette was prepared the antivenom in 1894.the method currently used to prepare antivenom by most of the manufacturers are originated from the method of pope which was develop in 1938. several new appr...

objective(s): streptokinase (ska) is an antigenic protein which is secreted by streptococcus pyogenes. streptokinase induces inflammation by complement activation, which may play a role in post infectious diseases. in the present study, recombinant streptokinase from s. pyogenes was produced and showed that recombinant ska protein was recognized by infected human sera using western blot analysi...

capture elisa system was developed for diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis (vl) using a monoclonal antibody raised against an antigen previously detected in the urine of vl patients. urine samples from confirmed vl cases from yemen, nepal, spain, sudan and brazil were tested in the capture elisa in comparison with urine samples from endemic and non-endemic areas along with urine samples from pa...

In this article we examine four objections to the genetic modification of human beings: the freedom argument, the giftedness argument, the authenticity argument, and the uniqueness argument. We then demonstrate that each of these arguments against genetic modification assumes a strong version of genetic determinism. Since these strong deterministic assumptions are false, the arguments against g...

L Antigen Family Member 3 (LAGE3) is an important RNA modification-related protein. Whereas few studies have interrogated the LAGE3 protein, there limited data on its role in tumors. Here, we analyzed and profiled protein skin cutaneous melanoma (CM) using TCGA, GTEx, or GEO databases. Our showed upregulation of cell lines compared to normal lines. Besides, Kaplan–Meier curves Cox proportional ...

The purpose of this investigation was to examine the ability of single-phase aqueous solutions of 1-butano! to release immunoprotective tumor antigen activity from partially purified plasma membranes of the methylcholanthrene-induced fibrosarcoma, MCA-F. Tumor antigen activity was assessed by s.c. immuniza tion of syngeneic C3H/HeJ mice 10 days prior to supralethal challenge. Although brief inc...
