Ragweed pollen

What is the specific term for the substance capable of triggering an inappropriate or harmful immune response to a harmless substance such as ragweed pollen ... [Pg.230]

The first assay to be employed for protein concentration is the Bradford assay, a commercially available colorimetric assay used to quantitate the total extracted protein. Amb a 1 is approximately 1% of the total protein extracted from ragweed pollen hence the Bradford assay does not reflect Amb a 1 concentration. However, at this step of the production process, the protein concentration is used to calculate final yields and not to make time-dependent or expensive decisions. Hence the nonspecific Bradford assay is ideal. A simpler direct absorbance method is not suitable due to the presence of a nonprotein chromophore in the ragweed extract. [Pg.23]

In addition, the use of gates or windows in the Coulter counter model ZM enables cell sizes to be accurately determined after the machine has been calibrated with pollen grains of known size. Thus ragweed pollen has a mean volume of 3800 ju,m3. When coupled to a Channelyzer a histogram of the cell size distribution is automatically recorded (Fig. 7.3). [Pg.127]

Instead, type 2 T-helper (Th2) cells, found in atopic individuals, play an important role in the condition. Studies have demonstrated flaring of AD on exposure to various aeroallergens such as horse dander, grass, and ragweed pollen. Although variation in performance and evaluation of these tests is difficult to avoid, patch tests with allergens can result in eczematous reactions. ... [Pg.1786]
