Abstract:Polystyrene-binding antigenic components (PBC) of Aspergillus fumigatus involved in ELISA IgG antibody determinations and the corresponding numbers of precipitates found by double immunodiffusion (DID) and/or crossed immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) were studied using culture filtrate antigenic preparations fractionated by Sephadex G-100 chromatography, concanavalin A (ConA) affinity chromatography, isoelectric focusing (IEF) and TCA precipitation. It is shown that PBC, immunologically active in ELISA, are characte… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
