Abstract: Rabies is considered a fatal disease once clinical symptoms have developed. The aim of this study was to evaluate epidemiological aspects and immune response in patients attacked by domestic and wild animals and subjected to post-exposure rabies treatment with equine serum and associated vaccine. Thirty-three patients were evaluated; they were between 13 and 65 years old, 75.8% were male and 24.2% female, and from the Botucatu neighborhood. Twenty healthy control individuals with the same age range were also s… Show more

“…Its pathogen, rabies virus, retrogrades through the nerve from wound to central nerve system and cause disease in brain (Murphy and Bauer 1974;Alizadeh et al 2015). Rabies is fatal once the clinical signs appear, however, the disease is 100% preventable with appropriate vaccination (Ayres et al 2006;Abelaridder 2015). Millions of people receive rabies vaccination globally, which saves more than 250,000 people from dying of rabies every year (Wunner and Briggs 2010).…”

“…Following these calibration measurements, it can be concluded, that with our laboratory-based ELISA, SARS-CoV-2 specific antibodies can be detected in range of 3.4 ng•ml -1 up to 477 ng•ml -1 in PBS-buffer or from 4.0 ng•ml -1 up to 312 ng•ml -1 in human serum samples, respectively. Typical IgG antibody concentrations in human serum are approximately 10 mg•ml-1 , and are significantly increasing after antigenic stimulation of immune system[18].whereas commercially test kits can detect IgG antibodies in patient samples against S1 subunit of SARS CoV-2 S-protein in 75% of samples 10 to 20 days after infection (Euroimmun).
