Seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2–Specific Antibodies, Faroe Islands
We conducted a nationwide study of the prevalence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in the Faroe Islands. Of 1,075 randomly selected participants, 6 (0.6%) tested seropositive for antibodies to the virus.

Cellular delivery of antibodies: effective targeted subcellular imaging and new therapeutic tool [PDF]
It is already more than a century since the pioneering work of the Nobel Laureate Ehrlich gave birth to the side chain theory1, which helped to define antibodies and their ability to target specific biological sites.

Non-specific binding of antibodies in immunohistochemistry: Fakes and facts [PDF]
Protocols for blocking non-specific antibody (Ab) binding in immunohistochemistry are based on rather contradictory and outdated reports. This prompted us to prove, whether non-specific Ab binding may really lead to unwanted background staining in ...

Identification of hepatitis a virus mimotopes by phage display, antigenicity and immunogenicity [PDF]
A phage-displayed peptide approach was used to identify ligands mimicking antigenic determinants of hepatitis A virus (HAV) for the first time. Bacteriophages displaying HAV mimotopes were isolated from a phage-display peptide library by affinity ...

DONOR-SPECIFIC ANTIBODIES AS A PREDICTOR OF GRAFT REJECTION AFTER LIVER TRANSPLANTATION [PDF]
The main reason for graft loss is the rejection of the donor organ, which may occur at different time after transplantation and may be caused by the recipient’s organism reaction against donor’s human leukocyte antigen (HLA) proteins.
