background: radiolabeled polyclonal human immunoglubins are useful in the detection of inflammations. in this work a novel approach has been presented to use thallium-201 as a comlexed nuclide for the development of radioimmunoconjugates. materials and methods: thallium-201 (t1/2=3.04 d) in tl+ form was converted to tl3+ cation in presence of o3 in 6m hcl, controlled by rtlc/gel electrophoresis...

Antibodies are essential tools of biomedical and biochemical researches. Polyclonal antibodies are produced against different epitopes of antigens. Purified F(ab')2 can be used for animal’s immunization to produce polyclonal antibodies. Human immunoglobulin G (IgG) was purified by ion exchange chromatography method. In all stages verification method of the purified antibodies was sod...

background: opticin, as a member of small leucine rich proteoglycans (slrps), mainly expressed in human eyes. it is also expressed in human brain, ligament, liver and skin, but at lower levels than the eyes. in the present study, expression of opticin was studied in a variety of human cancer cell lines. materials and methods: in this basic study, human cancer cell lines including, a-172 (brain ...

Polyclonal antibodies against kappa light chain are used to diagnose diseases producing free light chain. The kappa and lambda light chains are products of immunoglobulin synthesis and released into the circulation in minor amounts such as serum, cerebrospinal fluid, urine and synovial fluid in normal condition. The purpose of this study was the production and purification of polyclonal immunog...

Background: The unique expression of fibromodulin (FMOD) in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has been previously reported. Detecting FMOD in CLL patients using specific anti-FMOD mAbs might provide a promising method in detection, monitoring, and prognosis of CLL. Objectives: In this study, we aimed for producing specific antibodies agains...

introduction: polyclonal antibodies are required to be affinity purified. improved purification methods of polyclonal antibody provide an opportunity to pick the most purified immunoglobulins as a primary or secondary antibody in immunoassays that are included in many vaccine studies. two common techniques for purifying proteins is salt precipitation and chromatography purification. our work fo...

Background: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) has a crucial role in several malignancies. The extracellular domain of HER2 (HER2-ECD) has been extensively employed as an important target in passive and active immunotherapy. Isolated recombinant prokaryotic HER2-ECD subdomains were previously found to be ineffective in inducing anti-tumor antibody response. Objective: To employ rec...

conclusions the r-b-flagellin carried antigenic epitopes just like the native flagellin, while the polyclonal antibody raised against it exhibited functional activity. results the polyclonal antibodies raised against this r-b-flagellin inhibited the motility of the homologous pao1 strain of p. aeruginosa, which significantly decreased the invasion of the pao1 strain into the a549 cells and also...
