Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay01:33

Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay

16.5K
In 1971, Peter Perlman and Eva Engvall developed an Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA or EIA). ELISA differs from western blot in that the assays are conducted in microtiter plates or in vivo rather than on an absorbent membrane.
There are many different types of ELISAs, but they all involve an antibody molecule whose constant region binds an enzyme, leaving the variable region free to bind its specific antigen.  Enzyme-substrate reaction allows the antigen to be visualized or...

Complexometric Titration: Overview

10.0K
Complexometric titration involves the formation of a complex by reacting a metal ion with one or more ligands. A visual indicator often detects the end point of a complexometric titration. It is added to the metal solution before the titration, forming a stable metal–indicator complex and imparting color to the solution. As the titration approaches the equivalence point, the excess of the added ligand displaces the indicator from the metal–indicator complex, releasing the free...

Effects of EDTA on End-Point Detection Methods

496
Different methods, such as visual observance of metal-ion indicators, spectroscopic techniques, and potentiometric methods, can determine the endpoint of an EDTA titration.
In the visual method, metal-ion indicators (metallochromic dyes), which have distinct colors in their free and complex forms, are added to the mixture to signal the titration's end point. They form stable complexes with metal ions, but these complexes are weaker than the corresponding metal–EDTA complexes. As a...

Bronsted-Lowry Acids and Bases

101.0K
The acid-base reaction class has been studied for quite some time. In 1680, Robert Boyle reported traits of acid solutions that included their ability to dissolve many substances, to change the colors of certain natural dyes, and to lose these traits after coming in contact with alkali (base) solutions. In the eighteenth century, it was recognized that acids have a sour taste, react with limestone to liberate a gaseous substance (now known to be CO2), and interact with alkalis to form neutral...

Electrodes: Overview01:17

Electrodes: Overview

2.3K
 Electrochemical measurements are conducted in an electrochemical cell composed of various components that control and measure the current and potential. One fundamental component is electrodes, conductive materials that enable electron transfer reactions at their surfaces.
There are two main types of electrodes in electrochemical cells. The first type, known as the working or indicator electrode, has a potential that is sensitive to the analyte's concentration and reacts to changes in...

EDTA: Direct, Back-, and Displacement Titration01:30

EDTA: Direct, Back-, and Displacement Titration

4.7K
The EDTA titration types for metal ion analysis include direct titration, back-titration, and replacement titration.
Direct titration involves buffering the metal ion solution to the desired pH and directly titrating with standard EDTA until the endpoint. The optimum pH ensures a large conditional formation constant of metal−EDTA and visibility of the free indicator color in the solution. In addition, auxiliary complexing reagents are used to prevent the precipitation of metal hydroxides...

Area of Science:

  • Medical terminology and scientific communication.
  • Clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine.

Background:

  • Eponyms are common in medicine, but their specific use in clinical chemistry lacks dedicated study.
  • This research addresses the gap by investigating the prevalence and trends of eponyms in clinical chemistry.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically identify and quantify the use of eponyms in clinical chemistry.
  • To analyze the historical trends of eponym usage in prominent clinical chemistry journals.

Main Methods:

  • Manual collection of clinical chemistry eponyms from diverse sources (1847-2020).
  • Automated searching of PubMed using custom Python scripts and Biopython for eponym identification.
  • Focused analysis on eponyms within Clinica Chimica Acta (CCA) and Clinical Chemistry (CCJ) articles.

Main Results:

  • Over 300 clinical chemistry eponyms were manually identified.
  • A PubMed search revealed 97 unique eponyms in 33,232 articles.
  • Journals CCA and CCJ showed a peak in eponym citations around 1977, followed by a decline.

Conclusions:

  • 97 eponyms are in common use within the clinical chemistry field as indexed by PubMed.
  • The overall trend indicates a decreasing usage of eponyms in clinical chemistry literature.
