infectious bursal disease virus (ibdv) is the causative agent of gumboro disease, an infectious disease of global economic importance in poultry. the expression of heterologous proteins in p.pastoris is fast, simple and inexpensive. in this study, vp2 encoding gene of classical d78 ibdv was amplified using reverse transcription (rt) polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and cloned into ppiczαa vector...

Background: Although regular frequent blood transfusion improves overall survival of multi-transfused patients like β-thalassemic ones, it carries a definite risk of infection with blood-borne viruses such as viral hepatitis. This study was done to determine seropositivity of hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and Human Immunedeficiency Virus (HIV) infections among β-th...

The diagnosis of HIV infection is based on screening of HIV antibodies and confirmed by a more specific supplementary test. The most common confirmation test is Western blot, which is expensive, time consuming and subject to technical skill. The present study was carried out to evaluate whether the anti-HIV-1 antibody titer is valid as a supplementary test for diagnosis of HIV-1 infection. Anti...

Objective(s): Longan seeds have been used as a folk medicine in China. Longan seed extract (LSE) is known for antioxidative, antiproliferative, hypoglycemic, and hypouremic effects. However, its anti-inflammatory effect has not been shown. Materials and Methods: In this study, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were given LSE orally (vehicle, 10, and 30 mg/kg) for 3 days to its test anti-inflammatory eff...
