IgG and IgG subclass antibodies in patients with active cutaneous leishmaniasis. 2006

Hatice Ozbılge, and Nurten Aksoy, and Mehmet S Gurel, and Suleyman Yazar

This research was planned to detect IgG and IgG subclasses in sera of patients with active cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL). Sera from 30 patients with active CL aged between 10 and 50 years and from 30 healthy controls aged between 8 and 50 years were included in the study. Levels of IgG and its subclasses were measured by a nephelometer. Levels of IgG, IgG1 and IgG3 in the CL patients were higher than in the controls. In addition, IgG and IgG1, and IgG and IgG3 levels showed a significant positive correlation. These results showed that IgG subclasses could possibly be used as a helpful diagnostic marker in CL.

D009391 Nephelometry and Turbidimetry Chemical analysis based on the phenomenon whereby light, passing through a medium with dispersed particles of a different refractive index from that of the medium, is attenuated in intensity by scattering. In turbidimetry, the intensity of light transmitted through the medium, the unscattered light, is measured. In nephelometry, the intensity of the scattered light is measured, usually, but not necessarily, at right angles to the incident light beam. Turbidimetry,Nephelometry,Turbidimetry and Nephelometry
