ABSTRACT
Background: Prawns and shrimp are a frequent cause of seafood allergy mediated by IgE antibodies. Penaeus monodon and Penaeus latisulcatus, commonly known as black tiger prawn and king prawn, respectively, are among the most frequently consumed prawns in Malaysia. The aim of thi s study was to identify the IgE-binding proteins of these 2 prawn species. Methods: Raw and boiled prawn extracts were prepared and then resolved by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). IgE-immunoblotting was then performed using sera from patients with positive skin prick tests to the raw prawn extracts. Results: SDS-PAGE analysis of the raw extracts of both prawn species revealed 23 protein bands; the boiled extracts yielded fewer protein bands. The bands in the range of 40 to 100 kDa were sensitive to heat and therefore were not found in the boiled extracts. Immunoblot of raw extracts of black tiger prawns and king prawns yielded 14 and 11 IgE-binding proteins, respectively, with molecular weights of between 15 and 200 kDa. Proteins at 36, 42, and 49 kDa were detected as the major allergens in both species of prawns. A protein of 75 kDa was also identified as a major allergen in black tiger prawns. Other potential allergens were also observed at various molecular masses. Conclusion: Proteins of 36, 42, and 49 kDa were identified as the major allergens of both species of prawns. The 36 and 42 kDa proteins are hypothesised to be tropomyosin and arginine kinase, respectively. A high molecular weight protein of 75 kDa was found to be an additional major allergen in black tiger prawns.
ABSTRACT
Objective To connect the content of clinical immunology and inspection with network,so that it is more convenient for medical students to understand and study this course,and the learners’interest in learning is aroused.Methods FrontPage 2003 web page authoring software,as well as animation software(flash) and picture editing software(Photoshop) were used to make a vivid image of the teaching content be shown through the web page,and effectiveness evaluation was done through peer review and students survey about the software.Results Using FrontPage to create web pages and change knowledge into learning pattern.got good results in studetns’self-study,and the"online self-test"section was added,which would more effectively check study effect.There were good student feedbacks.Conclusion Applying this learning pattern to study will play a very good role in deepening students’understanding of curriculum,improving their study efficiency and stimulating their interest in learning.
ABSTRACT
Clinical immunology should display the advanced and applied characteristics of immunology,and show the speciality of clinical practice.This course is a bridge between fundamental immunology and clinical teaching so that the medicos should get better foundation for the future learning.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To explore the risk factors and control strategies of nosocomial infection in clinical immunology laboratory.METHODS The positive detection rates of HBV marker and antibodies to HAV,HCV,HEV,HIV,TP,and TB in total of 91 877 samples in clinical immunology laboratory during Jul 2004 and Jul 2005 were retrospectively surveyed and statistically analyzed.RESULTS The number of positive specimens of HBV marker and antibodies to HAV,HCV,HEV,HIV,TP,and TB were respectively 8 376,7,26,24,107,3,522,and 52 and the positive detection rates of these items were respectively 16.68%,0.43%,0.20%,2.22%,6.49%,0.03%,4.75%,and 4.61%.CONCLUSIONS It is very important to understand the infection sources and risk factors in clinical immunology laboratory in order to strengthen management of hospital infection and protection of occupational exposure.
ABSTRACT
