Purified reovirus type 3 (strain Dearing) was treated with monoclonal anti-?l antibody conjugated to ferritin and examined in the electron microscope. Virion associated ferritin molecules corresponding to locations of the ?l protein were observed. Electron microsocpy of thin sections of these preparations revealed that ferritin conjugates were localized at the vertices of the viral icosahe...

conclusions results showed that hcvcp + bcg induced a moderate ctl and mixed th1/th2 immune responses with higher levels of cell proliferation and ifn-γ secretion, indicating that bcg may have a better outcome when formulated in hcvcp-based subunit vaccines. results expression and purification of core protein around the expected size (21 kda) was confirmed by western blotting. the hcvcp + bcg v...

PURPOSE To prospectively evaluate whether cardiac gating can improve the reproducibility of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters in the head and neck, we performed IVIM diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) using 4 b values (4b), 4 b values with cardiac gating (4b gating) and 17 b values (17b). METHODS We performed IVIM DWI twice per person on nine healthy volunteers using 4b, 4b gating ...

An insertion mutant of gtcA, responsible for serotype-specific glycosylation of the cell wall teichoic acid in serotype 4b strains of Listeria monocytogenes, was also resistant to both Listeria genus- and serotype 4b-specific phages. The sugar substituents on teichoic acid appeared essential for the adsorption of phages A500 (serotype 4b specific) and A511 (Listeria genus specific) to serotype ...
