In vitro response of human T cells to Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

abstract：:Parasite antigens which bind to host cell molecules of approximately 32 and 34 kilodaltons (kDa) were identified in supernatant fluids obtained from axenic cultures of Trypanosoma cruzi. These parasite components were first detected in culture supernatants obtained after 2 weeks in culture. Immunoblot analysis of cult...
