A competitive enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay for determination of chloramphenicol

TL;DR: The assay was able to detect chloramphenicol concentrations in normal sheep serum for at least 1 week after intramuscular injection with the drug at a dose of 25 mg/kg body weight (b.w.) and can be used as a screening tool for chlorampshenicol use in animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical Chemistry Profiles In Injection Heroin Users From Coastal Region, Kenya.

TL;DR: Absolute ALt, albumin, globulin, and CRP measurements in combination with APRI, AST to ALT, album in to total protein and albumin to globulin indices may be useful laboratory markers for screening IHUs for initiating and monitoring treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serum adiponectin in HIV-1 and hepatitis C virus mono- and co-infected Kenyan injection drug users

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship of total adiponectin levels with anthropometric indices of adiposity was examined in HIV mono-infected (anti-retroviral treatment, ART-naive, n=16 and -experienced, n =34); HCV mono-infected and hepatitis (HCV) injection drug users (IDUs) has not been elucidated.
Journal Article

Validation of a competitive chloramphenicol enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for determination of residues in ovine tissues.

TL;DR: A developed chloramphenicol enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for the determination of chlorampshenicol residues in ovine tissues is validated and enables the method to be used effectively as a screening tool for chloramphecol residues in livestock products especially in the liver, muscle and kidney.
