Immunosciences Lab, Inc, Beverly Hills, California, USA
Arch Environ Health 58:421-32. 2003..The authors concluded that the antibodies studied are specific to mold antigens and mycotoxins, and therefore could be useful in epidemiological and other studies of humans exposed to molds and mycotoxins...
Antibodies against molds and mycotoxins following exposure to toxigenic fungi in a water-damaged buildingAristo Vojdani
Immunosciences Laboratory, Inc, Section of Immunology, Beverly Hills, California, USA
Arch Environ Health 58:324-36. 2003..In addition to IgE, measurements of IgG, IgM, and IgA antibodies should be considered in mold-exposed individuals...
Antibodies against Stachybotrys chartarum extract and its antigenic components, Stachyhemolysin and Stachyrase-A: a new clinical biomarkerAristo Vojdani
Immunosciences Lab, Inc, Beverly Hills, CA 90211, USA
Med Sci Monit 11:BR139-145. 2005..Detection of these antibodies in blood was partially attributed to cross-reacting proteins from other fungi. There is a need for a specific method to detect antibodies against characteristic components of S. chartarum...
