Brown, Joachim Storsberg, Christian SchmidtGrowing up, I was fascinated by The Muppet Show and the adventures of Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker. Apparently, my feelings were not unique because Muppet characters are used to ease tensions associated with education about clinical interventions (Ramsay, 2014; Rohn, 2007). Yet the opening phrase 'Where the future is being made today' has, in my opinion, summed … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 28 Jun 2016 · 7,427 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the keywordsFunctionalization Strategies for Antibodies: Lessons LearnedChristian Schmidt, Martin Geyer, Jörg Bohrisch et al.Precious little is known about useful functionalization strategies of antibodies that will not impair either reactivity or specificity of this valuable reagent. We used an experimental approach to demonstrate our own experience with published protocols. The conjugates obtained were then tested with regard to their performance against commercially available detection kits. Our results are then viewed in light of published … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 4 May 2017 · 7,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImmunologic Aspect of Mice (Mus musculus) Dental Caries Induced by Streptococcus mutansSri MurwaniDental caries (tooth decay), cavities or caries is a breakdown of teeth due to activities of bacteria acid producing in the presence of fermentable carbohydrates. The most responsible bacteria for dental cavities are Streptococcus mutans. Dental shape, saliva pH, normal flora, diets were suggested as predisposition factors for dental plaque and caries. The aim of this research was to study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2017 · 8,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEstimating HIV-1 Incidence Using the Serologic Testing Algorithm for Recent HIV Seroconversion at HIV Counseling and Testing Centers in the City of São Paulo, BrazilKatia Cristina Bassichetto, Denise Pimentel Bergamaschi, Maria Amelia Veras et al.The network of HIV counseling and testing centers in São Paulo, Brazil is a major source of data used to build epidemiological profiles of the client population. In this study, HIV-1 incidence from November of 2000 to April of 2001 was estimated, comparing recently infected individuals to those with long-standing infection in terms of epidemiological and socio-behavioral aspects. To identify … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImmunological Evidence for Peptide-Carbohydrate Mimicry with a Group A Streptococcus Polysaccharide-Mimetic PeptideSilvia Borrelli, Rehana B. Hossany, Susan Findlay, B. Mario PintoThe immunogenicity of a peptide-protein conjugate developed by linking a peptide mimic DRPVPY of the Group A Streptococcus cell-wall polysaccharide (GAS-CWPS), to tetanus toxoid (TT) was examined. BALB/c mice were immunized three times subcutaneously following homologous or heterologous prime/boost strategies at 4- or 6- week intervals in two different experiments. DRPVPY-TT, CWPS-TT, heat-killed, pepsin-treated GAS bacteria (with exposed polysaccharide) and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,960 accessesView PDFCite
