Immunochemical evaluation of two Toxoplasma gondii GRA8 sequences to detect acute toxoplasmosis infection
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016-11)
In this work, two Toxoplasma gondii GRA8 protein sequences were tested by indirect ELISA and measurement of avidity to differentiate between acute and chronic toxoplasmosis infection. Using the antigen called GRA8B, 79.7% ...
Impairment of first-trimester trophoblast cell function by ZIKV infection. Role of VIP in the trophoblast response to the virus.
