aeruginosa up to 1:1280 in 95% of the immunized donors. To obtain specific antibodies in the blood plasma of the donors in an amount sufficient for the protective activity of the plasma becoming manifest, it is expedient to use the vaccination schedule providing for subcutaneous injections of 0.5, 0.5 and 1.0 ml at intervals of 7 days. Intense immunity thus induced in the donors lasts for 3-4 months. The hyperimmune plasma obtained from the donors has an antibody titer of at least 1:320 and shows a 90-100% protective effect in mice infected intraperitoneally with P. aeruginosa. The preliminary results of the clinical trial of anti-P. aeruginosa plasma have demonstrated its efficiency as a part of the complex treatment of patients with purulent septic complications vaktsiny. Otsenka biologicheskikh svoĭstv polivalentnoĭ korpuskuliarnoĭ antibody against inhaled avian antigens among pigeon breeders.(EAA); a model disease of pulmonary inflammation. Among pigeon breeders, serum antibody and sensitized lymphocytes specific for these antigens have been described primarily, but not always, with disease. Antibody activity within the lung may have a closer association with disease, however, sampling by alveolar lavage at bronchoscopy is impractical for screening, therefore we used saliva to quantify the mucosal antibody response. OBJECTIVE: To establish: (a) if antibody activity against inhaled avian antigens was detectable in the saliva of pigeon breeders, (b) if the distribution of saliva antibody and total immunoglobulin levels were quantitatively or qualitatively different from serum, and (c) whether the hypersensitivity symptoms of EAA were associated more with the mucosal or the systemic humoral immune response. MEASURES: Saliva and serum total and avian antigen-specific IgG, IgA (IgA1 and IgA2) antibody activity in 87 pigeon breeders and 24 control subjects with no avian exposure. Purchase were used as a protein reference and cotinine levels confirmed smoking status. Specific hypersensitivity symptoms and various exposure indices to pigeons were established by interview. RESULTS: Absolute levels and relative proportions (vs albumin) of IgG, IgA and IgA1 in saliva, and IgG in serum, were significantly higher in pigeon breeders compared with controls, suggesting mucosal inflammation. Avian antigen-specific antibody of all isotypes was readily demonstrable in saliva (predominantly IgA) and serum (predominantly IgG) from pigeon breeders, and there were no significant titres in controls. The levels of IgG antibody in saliva and in serum correlated significantly (r = 0.52, P < 0.001), and both correlated with the raised immunoglobulin levels. In both saliva and serum the IgG rather than the IgA antibody activity was associated with symptoms of EAA. CONCLUSIONS: Antibody activity in saliva and serum, representing the mucosal and systemic responses, respectively, were both strongly stimulated by inhaled antigens. The IgG antibody titres of saliva and serum correlated significantly and were a useful index of inflammation, as measured by the raised total immunoglobulin levels, and symptoms. This suggests that IgG antibody in serum may reflect clinical and immunological sensitization of the lung mucosa. Collecting saliva is noninvasive, and saliva antibody measurement is a convenient method for monitoring EAA, especially in children, and will facilitate sampling for example in epidemiological studies of antibody prevalence.immunoglobulins of the margate, a marine teleost fish.(7S) molecular weight antibodies 17 days after initial immunization. The 16S antibodies were detectable with both haemagglutination and antigen-binding assays, whereas the 7S antibodies were only detected by the latter technique. Margate 16S (molecular weight approximately 700,000) and 7S (molecular weight approximately 175,000) immunoglobulins were isolated and shown to be antigenically indistinguishable. They therefore appear to belong to the same immunoglobulin class and to have a tetramer--monomer relationship. Experiments with stored sera indicated the 7S protein is probably not an in vitro degradation Activity Generated in Response to BNT162b2 mRNA Vaccination. vaccines.
