ELISA-basert deteksjon av biomarkørar i serumprøver ved Giardia-indusert kronisk utmattingssyndrom og funksjonelle gastrointestinale lidingar - Nivå av B-cell activating factor og antistoff mot cytolethal distending toxin B og flagellin hjå personar med langvarige plager etter Giardia-utbrotet i Bergen
(Master thesis, 2017-06-08)Bakgrunn: Parasitten Giardia lamblia forureina drikkevasskjelda Svartediket i Bergen hausten 2004, og var årsaka til eit stort utbrot av giardiasis i menneske. Denne gastrointestinale infeksjonen blei for mange starten på ... -
Giardia-specific cellular immune responses in post-giardiasis chronic fatigue syndrome
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-01-28)Background: The role of pathogen specific cellular immune responses against the eliciting pathogen in development of post-infectious chronic fatigue syndrome (PI-CFS) is not known and such studies are difficult to perform. ... -
