Polymorphonuclear leucocyte function was investigated in 19 patients with active Behçet's
disease. Spontaneous free leucocyte migration was found to be significantly reduced, yet …

In order to evaluate the role of mucoid coating of clinical isolates of Pseudomonas
aeruginosa as a virulence factor, opsonophagocytosis of mucoid and nonmucoid strains of …

In quantitative experiments using ELISA, binding of Tamm-Horsfall protein (THP) to
uropathogenic Escherichia coli was studied with monoclonal antibody to THP. Adherence to …

Since MS-fimbriated bacteria adhere to Tamm-Horsfall protein, it has been suggested that
Tamm-Horsfall protein may trap urinary pathogens and prevent them from colonizing the …

The in vitro adherence of multiple 14 C-glucose labeled isolates of Candida albicans to
exfoliated vaginal epithelial cells in the presence of subinhibitory concentrations of …

The incidence of urinary tract infection is higher in the geriatric population than in younger
adults despite the exclusion of patients with known risk factors. Tamm-Horsfall protein, a …

The authors present a simplified enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique for
the quantitative measurement of urinary Tamm-Horsfall protein (THP). Microtiter plates are …

Optimal conditions for the NBT-reduction test have been sought. Increasing heparin
concentrations up to 100 units per ml and a delay in performance of the test, especially …

A number of Mannich bases of conjugated styryl ketones displayed activity against Candida
albicans strains 3153A and B311. Antifungal potency was influenced by the relative …

Agglutination of yeast, human group A and guinea pig erythrocytes by multiple clinical
isolates of E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and P. aeruginosa was investigated and correlated with …
