In the face of a global COVID-19 vaccine shortage, an efficient vaccination strategy is required. Therefore, immunogenicity single or double doses (ChAdOX1, BNT162b2, mRNA-1273) SARS-CoV-2-recovered individuals was compared to that unvaccinated with SARS-CoV-2 infection at least one year post-convalescence. Moreover, SARS-CoV-2-naïve vaccinated complete schedule Ad26.CoV2.S, ChAdOX1, mRNA-1273, ChAdOX1/BNT162b2 vaccines evaluated. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S1 IgG antibody (S1-IgG), pseudotyped...
The currently used Japanese Oka and Korean MAV/06-attenuated varicella vaccine strains belong to clade 2 genotype varicella–zoster viruses (VZV). More than seven clades of VZV exist worldwide. In this study, we investigated the cross-reactivity antibodies induced by vaccines against belonging 1, 2, 3, 5 using a fluorescent antibody membrane antigen (FAMA) test. Among 59 donors, 29 were vaccinated with MAV/06 strain MG1111 (GC Biopharma, South Korea) other 30 VARIVAX (Merck, USA). sera...
Previously we demonstrated coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) infection during early gestation as a cause of pregnancy loss. Here, investigated the impacts CVB3 on female mouse fertility. Coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) expression and replication in ovary were evaluated by immunohistochemistry or reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). CAR was highly expressed granulosa cells (GCs) replicated ovary. Histological analysis showed significant increase number atretic follicles...
The prevalence of varicella is especially high among children in the age group 4–6 years South Korea, regardless vaccination. We investigated immune status healthy enrolled day-care centers and compared pre- post-vaccination immunity. Antibody titers were measured using a glycoprotein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (gpEIA) kit, seroconversion rate was assessed fluorescent antibody to membrane antigen (FAMA) test. Among 541 vaccinated children, 109 (20.1%) had breakthrough varicella....
The fluorescent antibody to membrane antigen (FAMA) test is the gold standard for measuring immunity induced by varicella vaccines with high sensitivity and specificity. However, certain aspects of FAMA test, such as time consumption, non-automation, subjective interpretation observers using fluorescence microscopy, are obstacles handling large amounts samples. To overcome these hurdles, flow cytometry was adopted analyze compare titer classic titer. In addition, save in preparation reduce...
The COVID-19 pandemic forced the rapid development of methods to measure humoral and cellular immunity against SARS-CoV-2. lack a global standardized protocol high variability intra- inter-assay precision T-cell response made it difficult compare assay results with those other laboratories. interferon-gamma enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (IFN-γ ELISpot) for immunogenicity evaluation was validated using naturally infected donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells, commercially available...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to determine the function adulterated food management (AFM) in behavioural intentions adolescents on safety concerns. Design/methodology/approach methodology exploratory nature and uses analysis variance regression determining predictive power independent variables (AFM’s mediator variables) dependent (food concern AFM behaviour intention). For this, a survey was conducted middle high school students South Korea using five-point Likert scale. Findings...
Since the coronavirus disease outbreak in 2019, several antibody therapeutics have been developed to treat severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections. Antibody are effective neutralizing virus and reducing hospitalization patients with mild moderate These target spike protein of SARS-CoV-2; however, emerging mutations this reduce their efficiency. In study, we a universal SARS-CoV-2 antibody. We generated humanized monoclonal antibody, MG1141A, against receptor-binding...
