cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a wide spectrum of mutations in the gene encoding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein. these mutations that correlate with different phenotypes, vary in their frequency and distribution in different populations. in this study missense mutation r117h that associated with the different clinical symptoms wa...

Nucleocapsid (N) protein of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), one of the viral structural proteins, inducesstrong antibody response in natural infection. In this study, a simple, recombinant N protein-based dot-blottest was developed to serologically examine chicken serum samples for the presence of IBV antibody.Initially, 72 serum samples were tested for the presence of IBV antibody using a c...

background: aflatoxin b1 (afb1) is a toxic metaboliteproduced by aspergillus species that contaminates a wide range ofagricultural products. objectives: this study was designed todevelop a rapid and highly sensitive immunoassay method inmicroarray format for quantitative detection of afb1 to evaluatethe potential of microarray platform for high-throughput screening,which can be beneficial in fo...

objective dot blot (db) assay provides highly specific results, but usually not reliable for quantification of antibody production. the need for a more objective db assay to provide a better definition of the immune status, against hiv antigens, promoted this study to be done to develop a quantitative db assay. material and methods dot blot (db) strips for antibodies directed to human immunodef...
