A Rapid Virus-Free Method for Producing Influenza HA Immunogen Needed for Preparation of Influenza Vaccine Potency Antisera Reagents. [PDF]

open access: yesInfluenza Other Respir Viruses
ABSTRACT Background The potency of inactivated and recombinant influenza vaccines is measured using the single‐radial immunodiffusion (SRID) assay. The strain‐specific antigen and antibody potency reagents required for the assay are prepared and distributed by regulatory agencies to ensure vaccine standardization, but timely reagent production is ...

Decentralized response as a pandemic second‐best: The case of Russia

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, Volume 90, Issue 2, Page 291-316, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Centralized state response is almost universally considered as the first best option for managing pandemics. This paper argues that in reality, states fall short of this ideal. Knowledge problems hinder the government's disease acknowledgement, resource allocation and feedback, while compulsion, political predation, and corruption exacerbate ...

The taxonomic status, synonymy and nomenclature of Buglossoides rochelii comb. nov. (Boraginaceae), a neglected plant of south‐eastern Europe

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2023, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
The identity of Lithospermum rochelii, so far known only from its type locality (Bulgaria, hills in Plovdiv town), remained hitherto uncertain.

Protective efficacy of a universal influenza mRNA vaccine against the challenge of H1 and H5 influenza A viruses in mice

open access: yesmLife, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 308-316, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Current influenza vaccines need to be updated annually owing to constant antigenic drift in the globular head of the viral surface hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein. The immunogenic subdominant stem domain of HA is highly conserved and can be recognized by antibodies capable of binding multiple HA subtypes.

Neutralizing and protective murine monoclonal antibodies to the hemagglutinin of influenza H5 clades 2.3.2.1 and 2.3.4.4

open access: yesInfluenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Highly pathogenic avian H5 influenza viruses have spread and diversified genetically and antigenically into multiple clades and subclades. Most isolates of currently circulating H5 viruses are in clade 2.3.2.1 or 2.3.4.4. Methods Panels of murine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were generated to the influenza hemagglutinin (HA) of H5 ...

Variability in fluvially‐dominated, fine‐grained, shallow‐water deltas

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 69, Issue 7, Page 2779-2813, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Fluvially‐dominated, fine‐grained, shallow‐water deltas are more variable than is generally recognized. Studies of the Mississippi River imply rather persistent river‐mouth jet dynamics, resulting in either progressive channel bifurcation around middle‐ground mouth bars on lobate deltas, or steady channel progradation to form elongate deltas ...
