Recombinant antigens in viral diagnosis.
DNA-fragments coding for a variety of different viral antigens have been cloned and expressed in E. coli. Selected purified recombinant antigens were used for detection of specific antibodies by the means of ELISA technique. This approach has been used for the development of four different ELISA's for the detection of HIV- and EBV-specific antibodies.
متن کاملRecombinant Proteins as Antigens in Serological Diagnosis of Brucellosis
Brucellosis is considered the major zoonosis in developing countries. In susceptible ani‐ mal species, diagnosis of brucellosis remains a challenge due to the variety of clinical signs that it shares with a wide range of diseases. At present, isolation of Brucella is con‐ sidered the gold standard for diagnosis of brucellosis; because of its low sensitivity and be‐ coming potentially hazardous ...
متن کاملDetection of viral antigens, particles, and early antibodies in diagnosis.
Immunoassays for the detection of viral antigens in clinical specimens and virus-specific IgM responses in serum have shortened the time required to make a laboratory diagnosis of several infections. A range of antigen detection systems are available, varying in sensitivity, complexity, and expense, and each may have a role to play depending upon the laboratory setting. Technical advancements t...
متن کاملUse of Recombinant Antigens for the Diagnosis of Invasive Candidiasis
Invasive candidiasis is a frequent and often fatal complication in immunocompromised and critically ill patients. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of invasive candidiasis remains difficult due to the lack of specific clinical symptoms and a definitive diagnostic method. The detection of antibodies against different Candida antigens may help in the diagnosis. However, the methods traditionally used ...
متن کاملDiagnosis and management of chronic viral hepatitis: antigens, antibodies and viral genomes.
Virological tools, including serological and molecular tools, are needed to diagnose chronic hepatitis B and C infections. They may also be useful to establish their prognosis, but they have found their principal application in guiding treatment decisions and assessing the virological responses to therapy. The goal of chronic hepatitis B therapy is to prevent progression of liver disease. This ...
