objective: the incidence of breast cancer is approximately one million which makes this cancer one of the most common among women worldwide. breast cancer comprises 7% of the total death rate caused by cancers. several strategies that use tumor-associated antigen (taa) vaccination and early detection of breast cancer are clinically being developed. breast cancer is caused by increased over expr...

Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic metabolic disorder in which beta-cells are destroyed. The islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) produced by beta-cells has been reported to influence beta-cell destruction. Objective: To evaluate if IAPP can act as an autoantigen and therefore, to see if CD8 + T-cells specific for this protein might be present in T2D patients. Methods: Peripheral blood ...

Two antigen-antibody systems were Out of 42 sera from patients with acute viral hepatitis 33 were positive for HBsAg,all HBsAg positive individuals possessed anti-HBc. From 11 blood donors  sera 8 were positive for HBsAg and 9 were Positive for anti-HBc;2 leprosy sera were tested,both of them were positive for HBsAg and anti-HBc. 5 miscellaneous sam­ples,z·were positive for HBsAg and anti-HBc...

The basis for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 cases in handling COVID-19 pandemic is Reverse Transcriptasi Polymerase (RT-PCR) and specific rapid antigen test. RT-PCR test takes a long time expensive to get results, while simple fast alternative getting detection results. method used descriptive observational form literature review by reviewing existing literature. Several screening confirmato...

Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a highly transmissible and pathogenic viral infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which erupted in Wuhan, China, has spread worldwide [1]. The objective of this study was to assess the seroprevalence SARS-CoV-2 among blood donors Republic Congo. Method: This an analytical cross-sectional that carried out during ...

Objective(s): Hydatidosis is a zoonotic infection and endemic in Iran. Due to the serological cross-reactivity (of sera) with other parasitic infection, diagnosis of hydatid cyst is considered to be problematic. In this regard, application of recombinant antigens improves serological diagnosis for human hydatidosis. Here, we present an ELISA test based on B8/2 recombinant antigen of Echinococcu...

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly infectious affecting cloven-hoofed animals and causes significant economic losses to the livestock industry. The Type O PanAsia-2 (O PA-2) vaccine strain protective against wide range of serotype FMD virus (FMDV) strains in East Asia, A22 Iraq/24/64 (A22 IRQ) most widely used antigen banks. aim this study was produce antigens from PA-2 IRQ viruses using ...
