Serologic assays

The disease is diagnosed in the laboratory by isolating Btirkhokieria mallei from blood, sputum, urine, or skin lesions. Serologic assays are not available. [Pg.384]

Chronic hepatitis C Viral infection causes inflammation and low-grade damage that can lead to cirrhosis. Can be diagnosed with serologic assays for hepatitis C antibody or viral RNA. [Pg.136]

Cultures and serologic assays are usually used for microbial identification in infectious diseases. However, fresh tissue is not always available, and culturing fastidious pathogens can be difficult and may take weeks or... [Pg.58]

Immunohistochemical staining has been used in the histopathologic diagnosis of viral hepatitis C however, IFIC for this virus is not as effective as serologic assays and detection of FICV RNA in serum. [Pg.64]

Finally, it should be mentioned that for both the animal studies and the clinical studies in humans, serological assays have to be developed in advance. These tests are required for the detection of the protein drug in serum or plasma (pharmacokinetic) as well as for the detection of specific antibodies evoked by the drug. If antibodies appeared, they have to be further analyzed for neutralizing activity. This could be demonstrated by an inhibitory effect in the bioassay. [Pg.142]

Serologic assays measuring the immune response to plague infection are mainly of value retrospectively, since patients present clinically before they develop a significant antibody response. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) tests and the older, less-sensitive passive hemagglutination as-... [Pg.497]

Lassa fever is most often diagnosed by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent serologic assays (ELISA), which detect IgM and IgG antibodies as well as Lassa antigen. The virus itself may be cultured in 7 to 10 days. Immunohistochemistiy performed on tissue specimens can be used to make a post-mortem diagnosis. The virus can also be detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) however, this method is primarily a research tool. [Pg.94]

VHP are difficult to diagnose in the early stages of the disease. Definitive diagnosis requires testing that is available only in highly specialised laboratories. Serology assays may be used to detect yellow fever antibodies. [Pg.192]
