Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Kit for Multiplexed Detection of Antibodies to Agents of Hemotransmissible InfectionsAlexander Poltavchenko, Anna Ersh, Pavel Filatov et al.The paper presents the results of laboratory trials of method using complex initial testing of antibodies to six agents of hemotransmissible infections: HIV, hepatitis B and C viruses, cytomegalovirus, Treponema pallidum and Toxoplasma gondii. The method is based on multiplexed dot immunoassay using plane protein arrays (immunochips) with the use of colloidal gold conjugates and silver development. We describe composition … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 7,165 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVitamin D: The Immunologic Role and its Effect on Human PathophysiologyWilliam Whalen, Edward Werner Cook, Nitya G. ChakrabortyThere are several reasons why understanding the role of vitamin D in the immune system is worthy of widespread attention. Our knowledge of the immune system is crucial for understanding human health and disease. New ideas for vitamin D and life style in the twenty-first century build directly on our understanding of immunology-from the development of new immune-based cancer drugs … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 5 May 2015 · 6,983 accessesView PDFCite
