We made 202 examinations on specimens from 78 patients, to evaluate the application of horseradish peroxidase-labeled antisera as compared to fluorescein-labeled material in a clinical immunology laboratory. Various circulating and tissue-fixed antibodies were identified by both techniques. The horseradish peroxidase technique can be substituted for the fluorescein isothiocyanate method for the...

Carbohydrates have been suggested to account for some IgE cross-reactions between various plant, insect, and mollusk extracts, while some IgG antibodies have been successfully raised against plant glycoproteins. A rat monoclonal antibody raised against elderberry abscission tissue (YZ1/2.23) and rabbit polyclonal antiserum against horseradish peroxidase were screened for reactivity in enzyme-li...

Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 produces seven to eight major extracellular proteins (EXPs) in a minimal medium inducing hrp genes. Using a polyclonal antibody against DC3000 EXPs, we have determined that the production and secretion of five EXPs (EXP-60, EXP-45, EXP-43, EXP-22, and EXP-10) are under the control of the Hrp regulation and secretion system.

Studies of our experiment are related to the binding of enzymes to antibodies. This involves the formation of a stable, covalent linkage between an enzyme & antibody. We used different Enzymes for this studies which are altered in binding action. Enzymes we used-e.g. Horseradish peroxidase (HRPO), urease, or alkaline phosphatase. Studies of Enzyme and an antigen-specific monoclonal or polyclona...

Immunocytochemistry, the identification of cell- or tissue-bound antigens in situ, by means of a specific antibody-antigen reaction, tagged microscopically by a visible label, has a remarkably wide range of applications. The basic techniques are straightforward and can be adapted to explore the localisation of virtually any molecule of interest to the researcher in samples of normal and/or mali...

Leptospires were detectable by light microscopy when Formalin-fixed preparations were reacted by direct and indirect methods with horseradish peroxidase-labeled specific antibody.
