UV irradiation was known as an important factor for skin cancer and also textile fibers and dyes degradation. UV rays have high energy photons degrading dyes and fibers causing fading and rotting of textiles when they are exposed to sunlight. The sun blocking properties of a textile are enhanced when a dye, pigment, delustrant, or UV absorber is present which absorbs UV radiation and releases h...

A liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry method was developed to map the eleven disulfide bonds in Pfs25, a malaria transmission-blocking vaccine candidate. The compact and complex nature of Pfs25 has led to difficulties in prior peptide mapping efforts. Here, we report confirmation of proper disulfide pairing of a recombinant Pfs25, by optimizing denaturation and digestion with trypsin...

It is commonly assumed that antibody responses against the influenza virus are polarized in the following manner: strong antibody responses are directed at highly variable antigenic epitopes, which consequently undergo 'antigenic drift', while weak antibody responses develop against conserved epitopes. As the highly variable epitopes are in a constant state of flux, current antibody-based vacci...

Borrelia burgdorferi, the spirochetal agent of Lyme disease, is transmitted by Ixodes ticks. A vaccine based on B. burgdorferi outer surface protein (Osp) A protects mice from spirochete infection. Here we report on the expression of OspA on spirochetes inside engorging ticks and relate OspA expression to antispirochetal immunity. Spirochetes in the gut of unfed nymphal ticks were stained by an...

Transmission-blocking vaccines have the potential to accelerate malaria parasite elimination by inducing antibodies that block parasite transmission from humans to mosquitoes. Pfs230, a gametocyte surface protein involved in gamete function, has long been a promising candidate. Due to the large size (3,135 amino acids), complex domains, and repeating six-cysteine (6-Cys) motifs with a multitude...

Infection with group A streptococcus (GAS) may result in a number of clinical conditions, including the potentially life-threatening postinfectious sequelae of rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease. As part of the search for a vaccine to prevent GAS infection, a conformationally constrained and minimally conserved peptide, J14, from the M protein of GAS has been defined. In the present st...

Recently, there has been a renewed interest in the development of transmission-blocking vaccines (TBV) against Plasmodium falciparum malaria. While several candidate TBVs have been reported, studies directly comparing them in functional assays are limited. To this end, recombinant proteins of TBV candidates Pfs25, Pfs230, and PfHAP2 were expressed in the wheat germ cell-free expression system. ...
