Combined DNA extraction and antibody elution from filter papers for the assessment of malaria transmission intensity in epidemiological studies. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Informing and evaluating malaria control efforts relies on knowledge of local transmission dynamics. Serological and molecular tools have demonstrated great sensitivity to quantify transmission intensity in low endemic settings where the ...

Site-selective multi-porphyrin attachment enables the formation of a next-generation antibody-based photodynamic therapeutic [PDF]
Herein we present a significant step towards next-generation antibody-based photodynamic therapeutics. Site-selective modification of a clinically relevant monoclonal antibody, with a serum-stable linker bearing a strained alkyne, allows for the ...

Improving sensitivity of oral fluid testing in IgG prevalence studies: application of mixture models to a rubella antibody survey [PDF]
A method for the analysis of age-stratified antibody prevalence surveys is applied to a previously reported survey of antibody to rubella virus using oral fluid samples in which the sensitivity of the assay used was shown to be compromised.

Fc-Based Recombinant Henipavirus Vaccines Elicit Broad Neutralizing Antibody Responses in Mice
The genus Henipavirus (HNVs) includes two fatal viruses, namely Nipah virus (NiV) and Hendra virus (HeV). Since 1994, NiV and HeV have been endemic to the Asia–Pacific region and responsible for more than 600 cases of infections. Two emerging HNVs, Ghana

Vaccination with complete adjuvant-added inactivated virus vaccine of Japanese encephalitis to swine, rabbits and chicks for preventing viremia (epidemiological study on Japanese encephalitis 25) [PDF]
As a step towards the elimination of Japanese encephalitis virus in natural surroundings, we inoculated pigs, rabbits and chicks with inactivated Japanese encephalitis vaccine supplemented with complete or incomplete Freund's adjuvant twice at one-week ...
