[COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE SPECIES COMPOSITION AND SENSITIVITY OF MICROFLORA IN PATIENTS WITH ODONTOGENIC MAXILLARY SINUSITIS].

Objective - to study the species composition of microflora and its sensitivity in patients with odontogenic maxillary sinusitis. The study included 230 patients of both sexes aged 18 to 70 years, who were treated at the Moscow Regional Scientifics Research and Clinical Institute named after M. F.

[Kinetics of immunoglobulin G transport through the multi-layer epithelial-hematic barrier of the respiratory tract].

A new class of drugs is now utilized for in vivo diagnoses and therapy of many widespread diseases. In these pharmacological and diagnostic preparations the active substance is conjugated with a vector which transports the drug to specific biological targets. Monoclonal antibodies are the most commonly used vectors: estimation of their permeability through multilayer and unilayer biomembranes is an important step in the analysis of efficiency of vector drugs.

[Study of the affinity characteristics of monoclonal antibodies by solid-phase immunoenzyme analysis].

An approach is proposed for measuring the binding constant (Kb) for monoclonal antibodies (MA) interacting with an immobilized antigen in indirect ELISA. This approach allows the measurement of optical density (A405) in the peroxidase reaction initiated by the conjugate at different concentrations (C0) of antibodies. Using the Scatchard plots, the dependence of A405/C0 = f (A405) for the whole range of MA concentrations was examined, and the tangential of the slope (tg alpha = Kb) of the linear portion of the antigen molecule was calculated.
