BACKGROUND Antibodies directed against haemagglutinin, measured by the haemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay are essential to protective immunity against influenza infection. An HI titre of 1:40 is generally accepted to correspond to a 50% reduction in the risk of contracting influenza in a susceptible population, but limited attempts have been made to further quantify the association between...

Nonspecific reactions by the passive hemagglutination test for rubella viral antibody occurred with 1.5% of sera tested. Rises in passive hemagglutination titers (greater than or equal to 4X) occurred with some serum samples taken 14 days after vaccination.

Rantz and associates (1952, 1956) discovered an unusual antigen which is present in many species of gram-positive and absent in gramnegative bacteria, and referred to it as "nonspecies specific (NSS) antigen." This antigen becomes readily attached to erythrocytes and thus renders the latter specifically agglutinable by antibodies directed against it. Sheep red blood cells modified by Rantz anti...

one hundred sera from children 1 - 6 years of age, representative of a large serum collection, were tested for the prevalence of antibodies against different viruses. hemagglutination-inhibition (hi) antibodies were found in 68% for measles; 61 % for rubella; 75'% for influenza a2/hong kong/68, 16% for influenza b/md./59, 0% for group a arboviruses, 10% for group b arboviruses, 3% for phlebotom...

Influenza vaccines have long been manufactured in embryonated chicken eggs. This method has some problems such as a production period (about 6 months) and use of large amounts infectious pathogens. Recently, the recombinant subunit using baculovirus–insect cell system extensively investigated. In this system, viral immunodominant components can be produced more rapidly larger scale than convent...

two sialic acid specific lectins episesarma tetragonum agglutinin–1 and 2 were purified from the hemolymph of the mangrove crab, episesarma tetragonum . the major lectin was purified using cnbr-activated sepharose 4b conjugated to fetuin. n-acetyl glucosamine containing buffer was used for elution. the hemagglutination activity of purified lectin was inhibited by glycoproteins containing siaα, ...

INTRODUCTION Reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in patients with past infection has been described in 5% to 10% of individuals undergoing immunosuppressive therapies. No data are available to date on the outcome of patients treated by tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) inhibitors for chronic arthritis with a serological pattern of past HBV infection. The aim of our study was...
