Diagnostics using indirect immunofluorescence tests (IFA) cover a wide range of indications and therefore have long been the gold standard in the laboratory. However, despite the many diagnostic applications of this method, evaluating fluorescence patterns can be a real challenge. More than half of the specific patterns that can be found in the evaluation of […]
A multiparameter EUROLINE blot for detection of myositis-related autoantibodies showed a high agreement with muscle biopsy results in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), suggesting it can be used as a first-line diagnostic tool in the diagnostic workflow. The recently published study was performed as part of a collaboration between scientists from EUROIMMUN Brazil and
The frequency of intrathecal antibody production to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients is surprisingly low compared to that of other microbial agents. This was shown in a collaborative study between EUROIMMUN and scientists at Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin. The finding is intriguing given the strong link between EBV and MS. EBV is presumed

A new study has shown that mRNA vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 do not induce short-term worsening of autoimmunity in patients with autoimmune liver diseases (AILD). The collaborative study between EUROIMMUN and researchers at the Epatocentro Ticino, Lugano and other institutes and clinics in Switzerland was published recently in the Journal of Autoimmunity. The mRNA vaccines against
