OBJECTIVE Nyctereutes procyonoides immunoglobulin G (IgG) gene is partially cloned. MATERIAL AND METHODS In order to obtain a certain length (966bp) of Nyctereutes procyonoides immunoglobulin G (IgG), two pairs of primers are designed according to the conserved nucleotide sequence of canine (GenBank:AF354265, AF354265, AF354266, AF354267) and mink (GenBank: L07789). Using Bioinformatics techn...

Cytoplasmic immunoglobulin G (IgG) in normal human epidermis was defined by a peroxidase-labeled antibody method. A correlation between cytoplasmic staining and the serum level of IgG was found. Epidermal cells containing IgG were not present when the serum level of IgG was less than 1000 microgram/ml.

Of 137 Staphylococcus aureus strains, 87 agglutinated in normal rabbit serum. The agglutination was shown to be caused by the Fc-part of immunoglobulin G (IgG). F(ab(1))(2)-fragments of IgG and immunoglobulin M (IgM) in corresponding concentrations were unreactive. The agglutinating strains had a high or moderate content of protein A. Strains with a low content of protein A and protein A-negati...

Chicken antibodies have been reported to be an excellent alternative to the mammalian antibodies, especially if the antigen is from mammalians. Because chicken immunoglobulin Y (IgY) does not bind to protein G, in this study a indirect method for the purification of murine immunoglobulin G (IgG) subclass specific egg yolk antibodies is described. After preincubation of the chicken egg antibodie...

Subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIG) treatment provides stable serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels, is associated with fewer systemic adverse events than intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) treatment, and offers the convenience of home therapy. In clinical practice, IVIG is still used preferentially for initiation of treatment in newly diagnosed patients with primary immunodeficiency (PI) and for i...

Abstract We present a wireless quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) biosensor fabricated using MEMS technology. The QCM contains 125 MHz AT-cut resonator embedded in the microchannel. Because of compact design, is suitable for mass production and device miniaturization. performed immunoglobulin G (IgG) detection measurements with different concentrations IgG. limit was 1 ng ml –1 or less, which su...

The review of non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis by Smith elegantly highlights the lack of evidence available in some areas. In particular, approach to immunological testing is varied. Table 2 on page 134 in this review describes the diagnostic features required for immunodeficiency (including immunoglobulin G [IgG] subclass 2 deficiency amongst other IgG subclass deficiencies). However, IgG su...

A biosensor was developed for directly detecting human immunoglobulin G (IgG) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) based on stable reproducible gold nanoparticles/polystyrene-b-poly(2-vinylpyridine) (AuNP/PS-b-P2VP) nanocomposites. The substrates were functionalized with carboxylic acid groups the covalent binding of anti-IgG anti-ATP detection IgG ATP (1 to 150 ?g/mL). SEM images nanocomposite sho...

Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is a disabling, potentially malignant condition of the oral cavity. The aetiology of OSMF is multifactorial but remains obscure. Although arecanut is considered to be the most important causative agent, responses observed in individuals using arecanut vary in relation to quantity and duration. It is considered that an immunological process is responsible for the p...

BACKGROUND Common variable immunodeficiency disorders (CVIDs) are the most common forms of symptomatic primary antibody failure in adults and children. Replacement immunoglobulin is the standard treatment, although there are few consistent data on optimal dosages and target trough IgG levels required for infection prevention. OBJECTIVE To provide data to support the hypothesis that each patie...
