  • Two weeks post-stroke, mice received intramuscular injections of pseudorabies virus (PRV-152), a trans-synaptic retrograde herpes virus driving expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP), into the affected contralesional forelimb to label neurons in descending tracts to the forelimb musculature.

  • in most applications the substance in question serves as antigen, both in antibody production and in measurement of antibody by the test substance. (theodora.com)
  • The magnetic microparticles were not suitable for direct measurement by microplate reader due the light scatting of the microparticles. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Acid fast smears have a lower limit of detection of about 1000 organisms/ml, whereas culture can detect approximately 100 organisms/ml. (vin.com)
  • EBA is commercially available and can detect early infection. (cdc.gov)
  • To develop the new antigen test, Schmidt's team designed a fluorescent probe bright enough that individual markers can be detected optically on the chip. (ucsc.edu)
  • The technique is similar to immunochemistry where instead of enzymes antibodies are labelled with a fluorescent dye 4 . (adejournal.com)
  • Direct CF is more sensitive to antibody activity than are agglutination methods. (cdc.gov)
  • Ideally, these methods can detect as few as 1-10 organisms. (vin.com)
  • Since even dead or dying organisms can be detected, these methods cannot be used to monitor treatment. (vin.com)
  • Traditionally, seed coating and mulching techniques were more common among farmers to generate better quality of the crops and prevent plants from any disease but currently new innovative methods are used. (springeropen.com)
  • Additionally, RNA can be amplified by reverse transcription coupled with LAMP (RT-LAMP) in one step, making it suitable to detect RNA viruses such as hMPV. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Some cytotoxic drugs tend to be inactive or less active when conjugated to large antibodies or protein receptor ligands. (justia.com)
  • The antibody is diluted in a tris based buffer containing carrier protein and preservative. (roche.com)
  • The overall objective of EuroNeut-41 was to design a vaccine that raises antibodies able to prevent HIV cell fusion by blocking the virus fusion protein gp41 in its pre-fusogenic conformation. (europa.eu)
  • The combination of electrophoretic separation of complex mixtures of antigens with the highly sensitive immunoblotting technique has been useful in characterizing the antigenic profile of HIV-1 and describing the immune response to this virus in exposed or infected persons. (cdc.gov)
  • Traditionally, laboratories used viral culture to detect influenza virus and improvements in virus culture techniques allowed for results within 48-72 hours. (quidel.com)
