Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of immunodiagnosis, and relates to an aspergillus immunodominant antigen and its application. More specifically, the present invention relates to newly identified Aspergillus fumigatus antigens which strongly react with specific antibodies in the sera of patients with invasive aspergillosis. Through gene recombination technology, use prokaryotic cell expression system to obtain recombinant protein. The present invention also relates to the use of the immunodominant antigen in the serological diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis. Background technique
[0002] Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is an infectious disease and is a serious fungal infection with high mortality. In recent years, the incidence of this infection has increased significantly, and it has become an important cause of death for patients with low immune function such as blood diseases, organ transplants, bone marrow transplants, AIDS, and autoimmune diseas...
