Development of an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay and Co-Agglutination Test for Diagnosis of Leptospirosis
… antigens was more sensitive but showed more cross reactions. Type specific antigen of hardjo gave 80% sensitivity and 96.5% specificity in differentiating hardjo antibodies from that of other serovars in rabbits. The ELISA, therefore, should include the use of type specific antigens and …

Detection of Actinobacillus Pleuropneumoniae and Identification of Serotypes 1, 2, and 8 by Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction
… pleuropneumoniae have been problematic due to cross- reactivity between serotypes, particularly serotypes 6 and 8. To avoid these serological cross-reactions, a multiplex PCR assay was developed to detect A. pleuropneumoniae and identify serotypes 1, 2, and 8. Primers specific to the conserved …

A study of nanostructured materials toward coronary artery stenting and DNA-based biosensing
… methods have poor sensitivities and are prone to cross- reactions with non-pathogenic microbes. An electrochemical biosensor has been developed that is sensitive and specific for GBS detection. Detection relies on DNA hybridization between biosensor probe DNA and target DNA in the clinical …

NMR investigations of cyanate resins
… composites. The mechanism of the curing reactions of cyanate resins based on bisphenol-A dicyanate has been investigated both in solution and in the solidstate by NMR spectroscopy. To facilitate the study, 13C and 15N isotopic labelled cyanate resins were used. The main curing reaction …

An evaluation of genetic markers for forensic identification of human body fluids
… fluids were identified unambiguously with no cross-reactions of non-target body fluids using the combined multiplex assays. Following further evaluation and validation tests, a total of 14 markers were selected and a capillary electrophoresis (CE) based, multiplex assay was developed to …

Identification and Analysis of Peanut and Soybean Cross Reacting Allergens in Korean Children Sensitive to Peanut
… that can potentially elicit serious allergic reactions. METHODS: Sera were obtained from 17 patients with high levels of peanuts and soybean specific IgE antibodies by ImmunoCAP(Pharmacia Diagnostics). Unabsorbed sera and sera adsorbed to remove cross-reacting antibodies were assayed for …

Synthesis and testing of novel polypeptides for biological applications
… are ordinarily difficult to introduce because of cross-reactions or exhaustive protection-deprotection steps. In addition, we can more directly mimic the adaptive function and responsive behavior of naturally occurring polypeptides. This thesis focuses on the development of the PPLG system and the …

The role of podovirus-like bacteriophage in the virulence of Vibrio harveyi strain 47666-1
… of V. harveyi infected with the phage. However, cross reactions were observed in naïve strains 30, 12 and 20 uninfected with the phage. In conclusion, the presence of bacteriophage VHPL from V. harveyi 47666-1 probably enhanced the virulence using assays with four naïve strains of V. harveyi as a …

Serological and chemical studies on the antigens of Bacteroides Fragilis and related species
… were antigenically distinct, although minor cross reactions were observed across species boundaries. However, the serological properties did not appear to distinguish genetic heterogeneity at levels down to approximately 65% homology. Homology groups, including the two B. fragilis subgroups, …

Contagious ecthyma virus infection of sheep: virologic and immunologic investigations
… antigenic types of CE virus. It was found that cross-neutralization and delayed-type hypersensitivity tests could not be used to classify the CE viral isolates. However, analysis of the structural polypeptides of CE virions revealed differences among the isolates in the position of distinct …

RADIATION CHEMISTRY IN PRESSURIZED WATER NUCLEAR REACTORS: H2 GENERATION BY 10B(n,α)7Li, AND THE REACTION OF BORATE WITH •OH
… was previously confirmed to have no appreciable reactions with e(aq)-, it was not adequately studied for reactions with •OH prior to this work. We have observed a clearly apparent reaction between borate and •OH. Current chemistry models are completely ignorant on both the existence of the …

Tick-borne haemoparasite prevalence and Theileria parva strain diversity in African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) from northern Botswana and Gonarezhou National Park, Zimbabwe
… buffalo but positive RLB signals might be due to cross reactions of the Theileria sp. (sable) probe with T. velifera. Theileriosis is recognized as a major threat to the livestock industry as some members of the genus may cause severe disease and mortality, whereas others may only cause mild or …

Implementación de criterios de Beers en pacientes con atención domiciliaria mayores de 75 años polimedicados y la identificación de las reacciones cruzadas
Introducción: El incremento de la población geriátrica es una realidad a nivel mundial y con esto los modelos de atención domiciliaria toman gran relevancia para dar respuesta a las diferentes patologías que requieran su seguimiento. Se ha evidenciado que en dicho seguimiento, el fenómeno de la …
