New microtechnique for the leptospiral microscopic agglutination test [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1975
A new microtechnique has been developed for the detection of leptospiral antibodies in serum by the microscopic agglutination test. The test was set up in a microtiter transfer plate held in a transfer plate holder, resting on a transfer plate cover. Live leptospiral antigen was added and a second transfer plate cover was placed over the transfer plate

Biomineralization of primary carbonate cements: a new biosignature in the fossil record from the Anisian of Southern Italy

open access: yesLethaia, 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)

Characterization of the antibodies detected by the microscopic agglutination test for bovine leptospirosis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hygiene, 1974
SummaryThe nature of the antibodies detectable by the microscopic agglutination test for bovine leptospirosis was examined. Density gradient ultracentrifugation, gel filtration and disulphide-bond-reduction experiments indicated that antileptospiral agglutinating activity was present in both IgM and IgG immunoglobulin fractions.
