1. Avian IgY antibody : In vitro and in vivo
Sammanfattning : Immunoglobulin Y (IgY) is the major antibody found in eggs from chicken (Gallus domesticus). IgY can be used as an alternative to mammalian antibodies normally used in research, and its use in immunotherapy has recently been proposed. LÄS MER
2. Non-invasive Antibody Production in the Chicken
Sammanfattning : The production of antibodies for analytical purposes using invasive procedures on small mammals is common practice in biomedical research. The aim of this study was to develop an efficient method for non-invasive antibody production in the chicken. LÄS MER
3. Production of polyclonal antibodies in rabbits and chickens immunised with human immunoglobulin G : A study of the utility of egg yolk antibody production as a substitute for rabbit serum antibody production
Sammanfattning : The utility of chicken egg yolk antibodies as an alternative to rabbit antisera was studied by comparing antibody and avidity development in immunised animals (15 rabbits and 30 chickens) during a one-year immunisation scheme. Human IgG was used as the model antigen and the efficacy of three adjuvants, Freund's Complete Adjuvant, Freund's Incomplete Adjuvant and Hunter's TiterMax, was compared. LÄS MER
4. Passive immunisation as therapy for gastrointestinal infections in children
Sammanfattning : Several prophylactic studies in animals and humans have shown potential efficacy of oral therapy with non-human antibodies against different pathogens. Passive immunisation with oral antibodies against different pathogens is an attractive way to treat different gastrointestinal infections caused by pathogens such as rotavirus or enteropathogenic and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (EPEC; ETEC).

5. Passive immunization against oral pathogens
Sammanfattning : Dental caries is one of the most common infectious diseases and Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) is considered to be the main etiological agent of dental caries. S. mutans possesses a variety of virulence factors that enables it to establish and initiate disease. LÄS MER
