Pisetsky et al reported on assay variation in the detection of antinuclear antibodies (ANA) in sera of patients with established systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).1 The authors determined ANA in sera ...

In this article, the 2009 European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) recommendations for the management of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) have been updated. The ...

In 1990, Koderisch et al. were the first to report the presence of 'false-positive' ANCAs by indirect immunofluorescence and anti-myeloperoxidase antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in ...

A comparison is made of the quantitative detection of a labeled antibody by surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) and by fluorescence using the same instrument with the same laser ...

Herein, a strategy for a metal ion-imprinted artificial antibody with recognition sites tagged by fluorescein was carried out to construct the selective sites with a sensitive optical response signal ...

We have used immunofluorescence imaging to study binding of a monoclonal antibody fragment to subcutaneously implanted human melanoma cells in nude mice. The data acquired using this nontraditional ...

Objective Autoimmune hepatitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis are chronic inflammatory disorders of unknown aetiology, frequently associated with the presence of perinuclear antineutrophil ...
