摘要:
Genetic material encoding the P28 peptide of Toxoplasma gondii has been isolated and characterized. This genetic material allows the production of peptides for use in diagnosis or immunization or can itself be directly used in hybridization assays.

摘要:
A method of reducing the severity of toxoplasmosis resulring from infection of a patient with Toxoplasma gondii by administering to a patient in need of such treatment, either after infection or before exposure to infection, a therapeutically effective amount of a compound that is a spiropiperidyl derivative of rifamycin S, wherein the derivative comprises an imidazole ring that includes carbons at positions 3 and 4 of the rifamycin ring, the carbon at position 2 of the imidazole ring also being a ring carbon at position 4 of a piperidine ring system, thereby forming a spiropiperidyl ring system, the spiropiperidyl ring system optionally comprising a lower hydrocarbon substituent on the nitrogen of the piperidine.

摘要:
An immunoassay for detecting disease associated Ig, such as IgM associated with acute forms of Toxoplasma gondii infection. Wells of microtiter plates are first coated with an antibody against the Ig to be detected and the test sample, e.g. serum, is then added and incubated. After removal of non-adsorbed materials from the wells, an insoluble visible form of the cognate antigen to the Ig, such as antigen fixed to latex particles, is added. If no such Ig is present in the sample, the antigen will appear as a smooth button on the bottom of the well; whereas if such Ig is present in significant quantity, the antigen will be captured by adsorbed antiIg-Ig complexes and distributed on the wall of the well according to the distribution of the antiIg-Ig complex thereon.
