Chaotic desynchronization of multi-strain diseases [PDF]
Multi-strain diseases are diseases that consist of several strains, or serotypes. The serotypes may interact by antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE), in which infection with a single serotype is asymptomatic, but infection with a second serotype leads to serious illness accompanied by greater infectivity.

Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 19A: worldwide epidemiology
Introduction: Streptococcus pneumoniae causes mucosal and invasive diseases with high morbidity and mortality. Introduction of the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) into routine infant immunization programs worldwide resulted in serotype 19A

SUMMARYThere are situations in which direct observation of the attachment of antibody molecules may be the simplest method of detecting antigen-antibody reactions. Applied to the study of the sex pili determined by a number of transmissible bacterial plasmids, the method has distinguished four serotypes in the F-like class and two in the I-like class ...

Main Points Gray and white matter astrocytes have different basal NADH/NAD+ redox states and ATP levels. Metabolism of both cell populations responds similarly to neuronal activity. Glutamate induced ATP loss is prevented by increasing extracellular K+.

(1) Background: Foodborne illness from Salmonella enterica subspecies I is most associated with approximately 32 out of 1600 serotypes. While whole genome sequencing and other nucleic acid-based methods are preferred for serotyping, they require ...

Stiffness heterogeneity of small viral capsids [PDF]
Nanoindentation of viral capsids provides an efficient tool in order to probe their elastic properties. We investigate in the present work the various sources of stiffness heterogeneity as observed in Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) experiments. By combining experimental results with both numerical and analytical modeling, we first show that for small ...

Monoclonal antibodies to serotype 2 and serotype 15 outer membrane proteins of Neisseria meningitidis and their use in serotyping [PDF]
A series of murine monoclonal antibodies to serotype 2 and serotype 15 strains of Neisseria meningitidis were produced which were specific for outer membrane proteins of classes 1, 2, 3, and 5. A panel of eight monoclonal antibodies that exhibited a high degree of serotype specificity when reacted with prototype strains of known serotype were selected ...

Chlamydia trachomatis Serovar Distribution in Patients with Follicular Conjunctivitis in Iran
Objectives:Chlamydia trachomatis infects the urogenital tract and eyes. Anatomical tropism is correlated with serovars which are characterized according to the variation in the major outer membrane proteins encoded by the ompA gene.
