Biochemical Characterization of an In-House <em>Coccidioides</em> Antigen: Perspectives for the Immunodiagnosis of Coccidioidomycosis

Biochemical Characterization of an In-House <em>Coccidioides</em> Antigen: Perspectives for the Immunodiagnosis of Coccidioidomycosis

The objective of this study was to evaluate the reactivity of an in-house antigen, extracted from a strain of <em>C. posadasii </em>isolated in northeastern Brazil, by radial immunodiffusion and Western blotting, as well as to establish its biochemical characterization. T...
