1. Diagnostic potential of saliva proteome analysis: a review and guide to clinical practice
Abstract: Proteomic techniques have become popular in medicine and dentistry because of their widespread use in analyzing bodily fluids such as blood, saliva, urine, and gingival crevicular fluids as well as hard tissues such as enamel, dentine, and cementum. This review is a guide to proteomic techniques in general dentistry, summarizing techniques and thei

2. Hepatitis C virus quantification in serum and saliva of HCV-infected patients
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) can be detected in blood and other bodily fluids, such as saliva, semen and gastric juices. The aim of this study was to compare the HCV viral loads in the serum and saliva of infected patients. Twenty-nine patients with detectable HCV RNA in their serum and saliva were included in this study. The HCV viral loads were determined t

3. Alta prevalencia de la infección por el virus de hepatitis B en la comunidad indígena Japreira, Estado Zulia, Venezuela
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in the Japreira indigenous community, Venezuela, and its relationship to age and gender. An intentional, non-probabilistic sample of 149 individuals was selected from a total of 300. All samples were studied for the presence of total HBV antibodies (total anti-HBc), an

4. "Hipervírus humano tipo 8 (HHV-8): Estudo de segmentos alvo do genoma viral em amostras de sangue, saliva e urina de pacientes infectados pelo HIV/aids, com e sem Sarcoma de Kaposi" / Human Herpesvirus type 8 (HHV-8): Study of target segments of the HHV-8 genoma in blood, saliva and urine of HIV/aids infected patients with or without Kaposi s Sarcoma
Desde a descoberta do herpes vírus humano tipo 8 (HHV-8) como o agente etiológico do sarcoma de Kaposi (SK) nas suas diferentes formas clínico-epidemiológicas, vários estudos vêm sendo conduzidos com o intuito de determinar as vias de transmissão desse vírus em populações endêmicas e de risco epidemiológico. Em regiões endêmicas, a transmissão

5. Evaluation of a Fluorescence-Based PCR Method for Identification of Serogroup A Meningococci
Standard and fluorescence-based PCR assays were developed for the identification of serogroup A meningococci by detection of the mynA gene. This assay was evaluated using bacterial cultures but provides the sensitivity required for the detection of the mynA gene from bodily fluids during meningococcal disease.

6. Biochemical characterization and crystalization of human Zn-α2-glycoprotein, a soluble class I major histocompatibility complex homolog
Zn-α2-glycoprotein (ZAG) is a 41-kDa soluble protein that is present in most bodily fluids. In addition, ZAG accumulates in fluids from breast cysts and in 40% of breast carcinomas, which suggests that ZAG plays a role in the development of breast diseases. However, the function of ZAG under physiological and cancerous conditions remains unknown. Because ZA

7. Characterization of monoclonal antibodies to protein antigen of Salmonella typhi.
Two monoclonal antibodies were produced against protein antigens of Salmonella typhi. One of the antibodies (STP14) belongs to the immunoglobulin G1K subclass, and the other (STP13) was assigned to the immunoglobulin G2a(kappa) subclass. Both antibodies could recognize the 34.0-kilodalton protein antigen from S. typhi. The specificity of these antibodies was

8. A real-time PCR assay for DNA-methylation using methylation-specific blockers
DNA methylation-based biomarkers have been discovered that could potentially be used for the diagnosis of cancer by detection of circulating, tumor-derived DNA in bodily fluids. Any methylation detection assay that would be applied to these samples must be capable of detecting small amounts of tumor DNA in the presence of background normal DNA. We have devel

9. Simple diagnosis of Encephalitozoon sp. microsporidial infections by using a panspecific antiexospore monoclonal antibody.
Microsporidia (phylum Microsproa) have recently become recognized as common opportunistic protozoans in the United States and worldwide, particularly affecting immunodeficient patients. Microsporidian organisms within the genus Encephalitozoon are the cause of nephrologic, ophthalmic, pneumologic, gastroenteric, and systemic infections. However, diagnosis of
