Nagaoka et al developed a new visual immunodiagnostic method using red latex beads to detect urinary IgG4. Taking those with ICT antigen test positive as the standard (136/156), the sensitivity is 87.2%. ...
Microarray technology can be used to identify which glycan structures are recognized by immune cells or antibodies, helping researchers design vaccines that elicit a robust immune response. By printing arrays of glycan antigens and testing various antibodies or immune serum samples, researchers can identify which glycan structures are best suited for vaccine ...
In humans, MHC is referred to as human leukocyte antigen (HLA).Assessing Epitope Antigenicity and ImmunogenicityThe predicted immunogenicity of peptide epitopes can be analyzed through two in vivo methods: 1) in vivo immunogenicity analysis using HLA transgenic mice; 2) antigenicity testing using human ...
How the tests work IGeneX’s COVID tests for travel are RT-PCR tests – the most reliable type of test for COVID-19. By contrast, most rapid COVID-19 tests are antigen tests, which are statistically less reliable and more likely to result in false negatives. ...

As the world opens up over the coming months and years, there will be countless plane journeys to see loved ones, meet new family members and travel for work and leisure. Many of these travellers will first need to provide evidence of a negative PCR test to show they pose a minimal COVID-19 transmission risk. Time is proving of the essence for testing. With reports of multi-hour queues at ...
Mic qpcr cycler and Myra liquid handler have been put through their paces in COVID-19-testing field trials in regional Western Australia and found to be noticeably robust, rapidly deployable and flexible. These results have been outlined in a recent paper, Development, deployment and in-field demonstration of mobile corona virus SARS-CoV-2 Nucleic acid amplification test, published by Paton, ...
According to the CDC (Center for Disease Control), the Covid-19 test, known as the rapid antigen test, is up to 97% effective. The rapid antigen testing is the Covid-19 test that requires the use of swabs. These tests are performed on the nasopharyngeal (upper part of the throat ...
