Specific immunodiffusion test for blastomycosis.
A specific immunodiffusion test for blastomycosis has been developed. The test permitted the detection of approximately 80% of 113 proven cases of blastomycosis. Two diagnostically important precipitins designated A and B were frequently recognized in patients with blastomycosis. Routine use of reference sera containing the A and B precipitins in immunodiffusion tests would permit the specific ...
متن کاملImmunodiffusion test for serodiagnosing subcutaneous zygomycosis.
Culture filtrate antigens of Basidiobolus ranarum and Conidiobolus coronatus were analyzed by immunodiffusion (ID) with homologous rabbit antisera. B. ranarum and C. coronatus were each found to have five specific antigens. Results of tests with heterologous antisera indicated that all of the species shared at least one antigen. ID tests incorporating the specific precipitin bands as references...
متن کاملImmunodiffusion test for diagnosis and monitoring of human pythiosis insidiosi.
To facilitate the laboratory diagnosis of human cases of pythiosis insidiosi, an immunological test was evaluated. A soluble antigen was prepared from a human isolate of Pythium insidiosum, an aquatic, thermotolerant oomycete that causes infections in cattle, dogs, horses, and humans. Sera from seven proven cases of disseminated human pythiosis insidiosi were tested in an immunodiffusion test a...
متن کاملDesigning a specific upper body anaerobic power test for wrestling
Abstract The aim of this study was designing a specific upper body anaerobic power test for wrestlers and determining validity, reliability and objectivity of the designed test. In order to assess the anaerobic power of wrestlers on the basis of upper body Wingate test, Twenty two wrestlers (age=23/40±3/20 year, height=173/13±6/97 cm, weight=74/55±3/88 kg) of Tehran wrestling team (most of the...
متن کاملBlastomycosis.
Blastomycosis is an endemic fungal infection due to Blastomyces dermatitidis that most commonly causes pneumonia; but the organism can disseminate to any organ system, most commonly the skin, bones/joints, and genitourinary tract. Both immunocompetent and immunocompromised persons can be infected, but more severe disease occurs in the immunocompromised. Blastomycosis can be diagnosed by culture...
