Pig immunoglobulins The pig immunoglobulin system has now been well characterized and has been the subject of two recent reviews (Bourne, 1971a; Porter & Allen, 1972). Three immunoglobulin classes are recognized which on the basis of their physicochemical properties and antigenic relationships may be regarded as analogous to human IgG, IgM and IgA. Some of the properties of pig immunoglobulins ...

AIM Immunoglobulin replacement therapy is required to reduce the frequency and severity of infections in patients with primary antibody deficiencies. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) can be administered intramuscularly, intravenously or subcutaneously. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy, dose adjustment and adverse events in subcutaneous immunoglobulin therapy by retrospectively presenting the records of ...

objective: cryptosporidiosis is a parasitic disease that is causing small protozoan genus cryptosporidum and transmission take place through fecal- oral by direct contact or indirectly through food or drink. the aim of this study was detection of anti-cryptosporidum parvum immunoglobulin igg, in newborn balb/c infected with c. parvum. materials and methods: oocysts of c. parvum were obtained f...

Intravenous immunoglobulin has been shown to decrease the risk of post-transplant infections in heart recipients with IgG hypogammaglobulinemia, however the use of subcutaneous immunoglobulin has not been reported. We report on immune reconstitution, clinical efficacy and tolerability of subcutaneous immunoglobulin replacement therapy in a heart transplant recipient with secondary antibody defi...

Immune responsiveness to IgG allotypes in the mouse was found to be controlled by an immune response gene Ir-IgG linked to the H-2 locus. This was demonstrated by the analysis of the immune response to BALB/c IgG (gamma2a) myeloma proteins in mice of various H-2 types from five different linkage groups of immunoglobulin heavy chains. Antisera were examined for antibodies to idiotypic (Fab) and ...

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...
