A specific Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) for the determination of human C5a antigen
(Elsevier, 1983-09-16)
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been developed to detect human C5a antigen. This ELISA methodology has been shown to be a highly sensitive technique capable of detecting C5a antigen concentrations below 10 ng/ml. ...
Prostaglandin E1 and prostaglandin I2 modulation of superoxide production by human neutrophils
(Elsevier, 1983-06-15)
15(S)-15-methyl-prostaglandin E1 and prostaglandin I2 rapidly and reversibly inhibit formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine induced superoxide production by human neutrophils. In contrast, 15(S)-15-methyl-prostaglandin E1 ...
Artificial anterior chamber for the growing of membranes on lens implants
(Springer-Verlag, 1983-10)
Intraocular lens implants made of glass and plastic were placed into the lumen of short pieces of clear plastic tubing. These were incompletely closed at both ends with nylon sutures, filled with Healon, and used experimentally ...
The macrophage adherence phenomenon: Its relationship to prostaglandin E2 and superoxide anion production and changes in transmembrane potential
(Elsevier, 1983-12)
Mononuclear phagocytes are undoubtedly the sine qua non of chronic inflammatory reactions. This is demonstrated by their unique ability to function as phagocytic, secretory, or effector cells during the course of an immune ...
Enzyme-linked lectin assay (ELLA): Use of alkaline phosphatase-conjugated Griffonia simplicifolia B4 isolectin for the detection of [alpha]--galactopyranosyl end groups
(Elsevier, 1983-04-15)
Alkaline phosphatase has been coupled to Griffonia simplicifolia I B4 isolectin using a one-step glutaraldehyde conjugation procedure. This enzyme-lectin conjugate (AP-GS I-B4) has been used to specifically detect plastic-bound ...
Abdominal implantation of intraocular lenses resulting in the formation of reactive membranes
(Springer-Verlag, 1983-06)
For a better understanding of the cytological principles involved in the formation of reactive membranes on lens implants in the human eye, two kinds of modern implants were placed into the peritoneal space of mice. Continous ...
Measurement of thymosin [alpha]1 by disassociation microELISA
(Elsevier, 1983-05-27)
A disassociation microELISA was devised for the estimation of thymosin [alpha]1, a chemically characterized thymic polypeptide isolated from bovine thymosin fraction 5. Antiserum to synthetic thymosin [alpha]1 was raised ...
