<span>The most crucial principle of ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is a highly specific antibody-antigen interaction.</span>
ELISA is a biochemical technique used to detect the presence of an antibody or an antigen in the biological sample. Simply described, in an ELISA, an antigen is immobilized on a solid surface and then a specific antibody is applied over the surface so that it can bind to the antigen. The antibody is usually linked to an enzyme, and in the final step, a substrate for that enzyme is added. The enzyme can convert it to some detectable signal, most commonly a color change. <span>Medical usage of ELISA is in the diagnosis of HIV infection, pregnancy tests, measurement of cytokines…</span>
First, let calculate the volume of the rod shaped-bacteria:
S = length of the bacteria * surface of its side = 4.1 * (0.45 *0.45 * 3.14) = 2.6 µm3
Now, let's convert the moles into molecules (with Avogadro's law):
0.0037mol/L = 0.0037 * 6.023 *10^23 = 2.22 *10^21 molecules / L
Now let's convert The volume and the concetrnation into µm3 (molecules / µm3)
1 L = 1 dm3 = 1000 cm3 = 1000000 mm3 = 10^9 µm3
so 2.22 *10^21 molecules / L = 2.22 10^ 12 molecules / µm3
The answer is 2.22 10^ 12 molecules / µm3
Answer:
neurocysticercosis
Explanation:
Cysticercosis is the infection caused by the cystic form of the pig's tapeworm, Taenia solium, and neurocysticercosis is when the central nervous system (CNS) is affected. It is usually possible through direct ingestion of helminth eggs, but it can also occur in a usual infestation (teniasis). It is an endemic condition in several countries in South America, Africa and Asia, accounting for about 29% of the causes of secondary epilepsy in these locations. It can also cause headache, hydrocephalus, meningitis, and even central nervous system infarction.
