## Abstract The detection of __Mycobacterium tuberculosis__‐specific antibodies in human sera has been a rapid and important diagnostic aid for tuberculosis (TB) control and prevention. However, any single antigen is not enough to be used to cover the antibody profiles of all TB patients. In this s

## Abstract Demonstration of __Mycobacterium tuberculosis__ in a smear or culture is the most reliable method for diagnosing tuberculosis (TB). In the last 10 years, several enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) based on mycobacterial antigens (such as antigen 60, 38 kDa antigen, and antigen
## Abstract Antibodies produced in animals vaccinated using live attenuated vaccines against __Brucella__ spp. are indistinguishable using current conventional serological tests from those produced in infected animals. One potential approach is to develop marker vaccines in which specific genes hav
## Abstract To improve tumor targeting in a subset of patients, where tumor cells do not express the well‐known tumor antigens widely used in immunotherapy, we have developed a novel biotechnological tool. It is useful for tumors of various origins for the identification of tumor‐associated protein
## Abstract To study the mechanism of spermatogenesis during the premeiotic phase, a hybridoma producing monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific for early stages of spermatogenic cells was obtained. In immunohistochemical staining of adult testis, this mAb, designated as EE2, was able to react with type
