Objective: To prepare and purify the rabbit anti-TgMIC16 polyclonal antibody, so as to apply it in subcellular localization.

Methods: New Zealand white rabbits were immunized with purified recombinant TgMIC16 mixing with the same volume of Freund's adjuvant for three times, respectively. The rabbit serum was collected on the 14th day after the last immunization. The polyclonal antibody in rabbit serum was purified with Protein A affinity purification column. ELISA and Western blotting were used to detect the antibody titer and specificity of polyclonal antibody. The polyclonal antibody was used to the localization of TgMIC16 by the immunofluorescence method.

Results: Indirect ELISA showed that the antibody titer was 1∶512 000. Western blotting showed that the recombinant TgMIC16 protein was recognized by the specific polyclonal antibody. IFA showed that TgMIC16 was located in the microneme of .

Conclusions: The rabbit anti-TgMIC16 is prepared and purified, and successfully applied to immunofluorescence localization of TgMIC16 in .

Thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TRAb) is a specific marker for Graves' disease (GD) and the measurement of which can improve the accuracy of GD diagnosis. Current detection methods utilize porcine-derived polyclonal-TRAb, which is unstable and is a source of significant inter-assay variability. This study aims to establish a time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA) method based on stable source of recombinant human TSHR and TRAb for the detection of serum TRAb.

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is a significant bacterial pathogen that causes infantile diarrhea, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. The lack of a reliable diagnostic method greatly contributes to the increased occurrence and severity of the disease. This study aimed at developing of a cost-effective, rapid, and efficient immunodiagnostic assay for detecting EPEC infection.

HIV causes intense polyclonal activation of B cells, resulting in increased numbers of spontaneously antibody-secreting cells in the circulation and hypergammaglobulinemia. It is accompanied by significant perturbations in various B cell subsets, such as increased frequencies of immature/transitional B cells, activated memory B cells, atypical memory B cells, short-lived plasmablasts and regulatory B cells, as well as by decreased frequencies of resting memory and resting naïve B cells. Furthermore, both memory and antigen-inexperienced naïve B cells show exhausted and immune-senescent phenotypes.

Feline injection-site sarcomas (FISSs) are malignant skin tumors of mesenchymal origin arising at local post-vaccination (or injection) sites. In recent years, a fluorescence imaging technique based on probes targeting αβ integrin has been effectively applied for the surgical complete resection of the tumor. In our study, we investigated the utility of a commercially available anti-α integrin polyclonal antibody for the histopathological evaluation of FISS's surgical excision margins.
