Composition and immunochemical properties of outer membrane proteins of Vibrio cholerae
The protein compositions of the outer membranes of various Vibrio cholerae strains, belonging to both biotypes (El Tor and classical) and both serotypes (Ogawa and Inaba), were analyzed by electrophoresis on polyacrylamide slab gels... -
Binding of intraluminal toxin in cholera: trial of GM1 ganglioside charcoal
A study was undertaken to investigate whether toxin produced in the gut lumen contributes significantly to clinical illness and whether binding such toxin by GM1 ganglioside adsorbed onto charcoal could alter the clinical course... -
Absorption of macronutrients from a rice-vegetable diet before and after treatment of ascariasis in children
The apparent absorption of nitrogen (N), fat, and total energy from a rice and vegetable diet was measured in 13 children of similar nutritional status but infected with varying loads of Ascaris lumbricoides. Apparent N ab... -
Use of antisera for identification of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
The usual methods for identifying enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains involve testing for production of heat-labile enterotoxins. To simplify the identification of ETEC, antisera against common ETEC O serogropus were used to ... -
Anthropometric assessment of energy-protein malnutrition and subsequent risk of mortality among preschool aged children
This paper examines the usefulness of various anthropometric classification systems of nutritional status in prognosticating the subsequent risk of mortality among 2019 children aged 13 to 23 months residing in a rural area of ... -
Immunological properties of the cell envelope components of Vibrio cholerae
Several immunobiological properties of cell envelope components of Vibrio cholerae such as mitogenicity, antigenicity, adjuvanticity and toxicity were tested in mice. Killed whole bacteria, spheroplasts, lipopolysaccharide and outer membrane proteins&#... -
Detection of Escherichia coli enterotoxins in stools
We determined whether enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli diarrhea could be diagnosed by direct examination of stools for heat-labile (LT) and heat-stable (ST) enterotoxins. The Y-1 adrenal cell and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)&#... -
Immunobead enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for quantitating immunoglobulin A in human secretions and serum
We have developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for quantitating human immunoglobulin A in human secretions and serum. The procedure uses Immunobeads as the solid phase, has a sensitivity of 10 ng/ml, and can be com... -
Assessing menstrual regulation performed by paramedics in rural Bangladesh
Describes and evaluates the performance of menstrual regulation by Bagladeshi lady family planning visitors in a clinic in Matlab and in 4 subcenter clinics. The feasibility of using menstrual regulation to evacuate uterine contents... -
Contraceptive distribution in Bangladesh: some lessons learned
In 1975 the Cholera Research Laboratory began a contraceptive distribution program in 150 rural villages in Matlab than to confirm that an unmet demand exists and to assess to what degree it could be met by making... -
Isolation of Vibrio-like group, EF-6, from patients with diarrhea
The Vibrio-like organism EF-6 was isolated from more than 500 patients with diarrhea in Bangladesh between October 1976 and June 1977. Bacteriological studies indicate that EF-6 is a member of the family Vibrionaceae and that&#... -
The Matlab family planning-health services project
Major modifications in the field structure and program activities of a simple contraceptive distribution program in rural Bangladesh demanded a more elaborate infrastructure to provide an increased range of methods and services. The ... -
Oral rehydration therapy for treatment of rotavirus diarrhoea in a rural treatment centre in Bangladesh
In November 1977, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detecting rotavirus antigen was introduced in the laboratory of a rural treatment centre in Bangladesh. During the next 40 days rotavirus without other pathogens was found&#... -
Nutritional consequences of low dose milk supplements consumed by lactose-malabsorbing children
The nutritional consequences of supplementary milk consumption by lactose-malabsorbing children were determined by nutrient balance studies. Twelve subjects received a marginally adequate rice and vegetable base-line diet alone and with simulated&... -
Seroepidemiology of rotavirus infection in rural Bangladesh
A prospective seroepidemiological study of rotavirus infection was performed in children in a village in rural Bangladesh. Ninety-three percent of the children had detectable antibodies during the study, and there were 66 significant... -
Rapid assessment of health status and preventive-medicine needs of newly arrived Kampuchean refugees, Sa Kaeo, Thailand
In the disaster relief programme for Kampuchean refugees in Thailand, epidemiological techniques were incorporated into the health-planning process during the first 2 weeks of the refugee influx. The findings influenced not only health&#...
