A group of environmental and clinical Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 isolates was subtyped by monoclonal antibody dot immunoblotting and plasmid analysis. Monoclonal antibody analysis defined seven subtypes within three major groups. Plasmid analysis (including restriction endonuclease digestion) revealed 10 subtypes. By combining plasmid and monoclonal techniques, all 16 strains were shown...

the enterotoxins (ets) of clostridium perfringens isolated from enterotoxemic or diarrheic alpacas, pigs, calves, dogs, and horses were obtained from sporulated cell extracts. the ets from alpaca, pig, and calf isolates were chromatographed on sephadex g-loo. monoclonal antibodies (mabs) against ets derived from alpaca, pig, and calf c. perfringens isolates were produced. the mabs were used in ...

Background: Different methods have been used for characterization of Leishmania promastigotes. Monoclonal antibodies are useful in characterization of   Leishmania spp . both amastogotes and promastigotes. Objective: Comparing the characterization of   Leishmania spp. promastigotes with immunoperoxidase test (Avidin-Biotin) techniques and an indirect immunofluorescent assay (IFA).   Methods: Ap...

background: monoclonal antibody technology allows identification of amastigote-specific antigen in human tissue biopsies and search for a suitable vaccine candidate, which may induce a long lasting immunity.   objectives : production and partial characterization of seven monoclonal antibodies against leishmania tropica promstigotes.   methods: seven murine monoclonal antibodies of the igg isoty...

Monoclonal antibodies are therapeutic molecules known for their high specificity and versatility in the treatment of cancer autoimmune disorders, but dosage forms typically limited to low concentrations large fluid volumes due formulation challenges. Hydrogel microsphere formulations offer a route quicker, patient-friendly dosing regimens monoclonal with loading favorable flow properties needed...

Ten human monoclonal antibodies derived from peripheral B cells of a patient with human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV)-associated myelopathy are described. One monoclonal antibody recognized a linear epitope within the carboxy-terminal 43 amino acids of HTLV gp21, and two monoclonal antibodies recognized linear epitopes within HTLV type 1 (HTLV-1) gp46. The remaining seven monoclonal antibodi...

background: formation of secondary structure such as dna hairpins or loops may influence molecular genetics methods and pcr based approaches necessary for genetic engineering, in addition to gene regulation. materials and methods: a polymerase chain reaction with splice overlap extension (soe-pcr) was used to create fully synthetic 1f5 chimeric anti-cd20 heavy- and light-chain genes. the chimer...

objective: the study of physiological changes in recombinant cell lines provides useful information to improve production performance. in this study, we investigate the effects of an anti-cd33 chimeric igg4 expression on sp2.0 cell growth. methods: variable region genes of light and heavy chains of monoclonal antibody produced by m195 were cloned in pfuse-clig-hk and pfuse-chig-hg4 expression ...
