Using time-resolved fluorescence to measure serum venom-specific IgE and IgG. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 We adapted DELFIA™ (dissociation-enhanced lanthanide fluoroimmunoassay), a time resolved fluorescence method, to quantitate whole venom specific and allergenic peptide-specific IgE (sIgE), sIgG(1) and sIgG(4) in serum from people clinically allergic to ...

Local Field Potential‐Based Programming: A Proof‐of‐Concept Pilot Study
Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objectives Programming deep brain stimulation (DBS) is still based on a trial‐and‐error approach, often becoming a time‐consuming process for both treating physicians and patients. Several strategies have been proposed to streamline DBS programming, most of which are preliminary and mainly address Parkinson's disease, a condition readily ...

Anaphylaxis caused by stings from the Solenopsis invicta, lava-pés ant or red imported fi re ant [PDF]
Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2015 Ants are social insects with species of medical interest, such as the fi re ants (Solenopsis sp.). The sting causes inflammation, vesicles and sterile pustules, which may cause allergic phenomena and even anaphylactic shock.

A pain-causing and paralytic ant venom glycopeptide [PDF]
iScience, 2021 Ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) are familiar inhabitants of most terrestrial environments. Although we are aware of the ability of many species to sting, knowledge of ant venom chemistry remains limited. Herein, we describe the discovery and characterization of an O-linked glycopeptide (Mg7a) as a major component of the venom of the ant Myrmecia gulosa.
