Fine Particulate Air Pollution and Cardiorespiratory Effects in the Elderly (Publications)
BACKGROUND:: Past studies of air pollution effects among sensitive subgroups have produced inconsistent results. Our objective was to determine relationships between various measures of air pollution
Identification of an <em>Onchocerca volvulus</em> cDNA encoding a low-molecular-weight antigen uniquely recognized by onchocerciasis patient sera (Publications)
The primary structure of an immunodominant antigen of the filarial parasite, Onchocerca volvulus was deduced from cDNA sequence analysis. Using affinity-purified antibody from onchocerciasis patients
