A patch test with an allergen mix used as screening test should be highly sensitive so that allergic patients are not missed. A previous analysis based on patch test data from 1990 to 1993 has shown that the mercapto mix
International test guidelines, such as the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) guideline #406, recommend 2 guinea pig methods for testing of the contact allergenic potential of chemicals: the Guinea Pig Maximization Test (GPMT) and the Buehler test. Previous
The zinc finger structure that is found in the nucleocapsid protein of nearly all retroviruses has been proposed as a target for antiviral therapy. Since compounds that chemically attack the cysteines of the finger have been shown to inactivate both

This paper reports the construction of the gold/mercaptobenzothiazole/polyaniline/acetylcholinesterase/polyvinylacetate (Au/ MBT/PANI/AChE/PVAc) thick-film biosensor for the determination of certain organophosphate pesticide solutions in selected aqueous organic solvent solutions. The Au/MBT/PANI/AChE/PVAc electrocatalytic biosensor device was constructed by encapsulating acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme in the
