| 1 | Nucleic acid vaccine encoding gD2 protects mice from herpes simplex virus type 2 disease. | Kriesel, John D.; Spruance, Spotswood L.; Daynes, Raymond A. | Nucleic acid vaccinations with plasmids pWW65, containing the sequence for herpes simplex type 2 (HSV-2) gD2, and pRSVnt, lacking the gD sequence, were studied. Groups of mice were immunized with pWW65 alone, pWW65 plus 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D3 (D3), or pRSVnt. Clinical disease (vaginitis), serum an... | Mice, Inbred BALB C; Plasmids; Viral Vaccines | 1996 | |
| 2 | Role of the laboratory in diagnosis of influenza during seasonal epidemics and potential pandemics | Petti, Cathy A. | Laboratory diagnosis of influenza is critical to its treatment and surveillance. With the emergence of novel and highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses, the role of the laboratory has been further extended to include isolation and subtyping of the virus to monitor its appearance and facilitate ap... | Antibodies, Viral; Antigens, Viral; RNA, Viral | 2006 | |
| 3 | Assessment of the utility of viral culture of cerebrospinal fluid | Petti, Cathy A.; Polage, Christopher R. | Nucleic acid amplification testing is the preferred method to detect enteroviruses and Herpesviridae in cerebrospinal fluid, but clinicians still request viral culture. Review of 22,394 viral cultures of cerebrospinal fluid samples found that <0.1% recovered nonenterovirus, non-Herpesviridae species... | Enterovirus Infections; Herpesviridae Infections; Virus Cultivation | 2006-12-15 |
