Objective: To explore the application of immunofluorescence and sandwich ELISA with double-antibodies in detection of human rabies.

Methods: The cerebrum, cerebellum, brainstem, and hippocampus of four patients died of rabies identified by clinical diagnosis were collected and kept in freezer at -70 degrees C or in formaldehyde solution separately. The rat brain tissue infected by CVS strain of rabies virus was used as a positive control and the brain tissue of a patient died of acute pancreatitis was used as a negative control.

Results: Rabies virus was detected in the tissues kept in freezer at -70 degrees C and the positive control but was not detected in the tissues kept in formaldehyde solution and the negative control.

Conclusion: Immunofluorescence and Sandwich ELISA with double-antibodies could be used in detection of human rabies. The samples should be kept in deep frozen temperature condition instead of in formaldehyde solution.

Improving the regeneration of the tendon-bone interface (TBI) helps to decrease the risk of rotator cuff retears after repair surgeries. Unfortunately, the lack of inherent healing capacity of the TBI, insufficient mechanical properties, and abnormal and persistent inflammation during repair are the key factors leading to suboptimal healing of the rotator cuff. Therefore, a high-strength rotator cuff repair material capable of regulating the unbalanced immune response and enhancing the regeneration of the TBI is urgently needed.

Due to the high morbidity and mortality rates of invasive aspergillosis (IA) and the importance of early IA detection for successful treatment and subsequent outcome, this study aimed to determine a time course of detectable antigen in a mouse model of IA and correlate it with tissue invasion by using two novel monoclonal antibodies, 1D2 and 4E4, that can be used to detect the -derived glycoproteins. Immunocompromised mice were randomly divided into five groups: uninfected control, and inoculation with conidia from , , and . Conidia (2 × 10 cells/mL) were administered intravenously via tail vein injection.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumor heterogeneity impedes the development of biomarker assays suitable for early disease detection that would improve patient outcomes. The CA19-9 glycan is currently used as a standalone biomarker for PDAC. Furthermore, previous studies have shown that cancer cells may display aberrant membrane-associated glycans.

Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by an expansion of CAG trinucleotide repeat in the HTT gene; the exact pathogenesis of HD currently remains unclear. One of the promising directions in the study of HDs is to determine the molecular mechanism underlying the development and role of microRNAs (miRNAs). This study aimed to identify the profile of miRNAs in an HD human cell line model as diagnostic biomarkers for HD.

The rampant hepatitis B virus (HBV) seriously endangers human health, and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is its early diagnostic marker. Therefore, it is crucial to construct a fast and highly sensitive HBsAg detection method. Based on high-efficiency magnetic separation technology and fluorescent composite material labelling technology, an accurate, fast and sensitive fluorescent immunosensing system for HBsAg detection was developed.
