Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of lower respiratory tract disease in young children and elderly people. Although the virus was isolated in 1955, an effective RSV vaccine has not been developed, and the only licensed intervention is

In healthy conditions and the absence of blood vessel injury, the tendency to form venous and arterial clots is kept in check by molecules that inhibit activation of the clotting cascade and promote fibrinolysis. These include tissue factor pathway inhibitor, antithrombin, heparin, and proteins C an...
Plasma is the liquid portion of the blood. Blood cells like red blood cells float in the plasma. Also dissolved in plasma are electrolytes, nutrients and vitamins (absorbed from the intestines or produced by the body), hormones, clotting factors, and proteins such as albumin and immunoglobulins...
A conserved lysine and/or a Mg2+ also may be involved in activating the water and stabilizing the pentavalent transition state produced at the scissile phosphorous (10). Inversion occurs as the 3´-OH leaving group is protonated by a Mg2+-bound water upon exit. Regardless of the mechanism ...

(up to 200–250 mmol/L) medium for autoblood erythrocytes in a solution of a broad spectrum antibiotic with the addition of dimethyl sulfoxide and heparin. The latter is used to improve the rheological properties of blood, to desorb XOR from the luminal surface of endothelial cells, and to ...
4) Vaccines that have not been produced properly and undergone adequate quality control may contain virulent organisms which could produce severe disease (this is very rare). 5) Some live vaccines, if given by the wrong route, can cause severe illness (e.g. injectable cat flu vaccine viruses...
