Lethaia, EarlyView., 2021 Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Improvement of a direct agglutination test for field studies of visceral leishmaniasis [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1988 To increase the potential for the wide-scale application of our direct agglutination test for visceral leishmaniasis, modifications in the components and procedures were introduced. Supplementation with 0.056 M citrate of the suspension medium stabilized the antigen for 9 weeks at 37 degrees C. To circumvent the need for cooling systems in the field, 0.

Modified Direct Agglutination Test for Simplified Serologic Diagnosis of Leishmaniasis
Clinical and Vaccine Immunology, 2003 ABSTRACT Human leishmaniasis is a severe health problem in many countries around the world. Hence, a cheap, reliable, and accurate diagnostic test is required to fight this disease. Perhaps the direct agglutination test (DAT) meets these criteria, but antigen elaboration involves many difficulties. We have developed a new antigen

Domestic dog ownership in Iran is a risk factor for human infection with Leishmania infantum. [PDF]
, 2002 One explanation proposed for the widespread failure to control zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis by culling infected domestic dogs is that wild canids or humans play significant roles in transmission.
