Immunotherapy-induced hypersensitivity reaction to red tattoo ink

Here, we describe methods for tattooing adult Xenopus laevis (African clawed frog) with a rotary tattoo machine. Proper tattooing results in dark, easily legible numerals that last for several months and make animals easily distinguishable for research and recordkeeping...

This method for two-step pyrolysis online coupled to gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection and data evaluation protocol can be used for multi-component analysis of tattoo inks and discrimination of counterfeit...

The present work illustrates the convenience of using sublingual immunotherapy to boost the innate immune response in the lungs and confer protection against acute pneumococcal pneumonia in...

Skin tattooing is a potent and safe way to delivery DNA vaccine intradermally. Here, a DNA plasmid encoding EGFP is delivered by tattooing to the skin of a laboratory mouse, and the expression of EGFP in the skin cells is then inspected by confocal...
