Study of internal transcribed spacer and mitochondrial large-subunit genes of Pneumocystis carinii hominis isolated by repeated bronchoalveolar lavage from human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients during one or several episodes of pneumonia.

Description : The objective of this study was to type, analyze, and compare Pneumocystis carinii hominis strains obtained from different samples during a given or recurrent episodes of P. carinii pneumonia (PCP) for epidemiologic purposes. We studied 36 bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) or induced sputum (IS) samples ...

Evaluation of a monoclonal antibody-based latex agglutination test for diagnosis of cryptococcosis: comparison with two tests using polyclonal antibodies.

Description : Cryptococcal antigen detection has become a routine biological test performed for patients with AIDS. The poor prognosis of cryptococcosis explains the need for reliable tests. We evaluated the performances of a newly commercialized agglutination test that uses a monoclonal antibody specific for cry...

Source depopulation potential and surface-wave tomography using a crosscorrelation method in a scattering medium

Description : We use seismic prospecting data on a 40 × 40 regular grid of sources and receivers deployed on a 1 km × 1 km area to assess the feasibility and advantages of velocity analysis of the shallow subsurface by means of surface-wave tomography with Green's functions estimated from crosscorrelation. In a f...

Preliminary results of Pneumocystis carinii strain differentiation by using molecular biology.

Description : The mode of Pneumocystis carinii transmission is controversial. Recent studies point to exogenous inoculation rather than reactivation, and person-to-person transmission has also been suggested. Comparison of nucleotide sequences of the large-subunit mitochondrial rRNA gene of P. carinii from human ...
