erythema infectiosum/phosphatase

Parvovirus B19 (B19), also known as "erythema infectiosum", is a disease that occurs in smaller outbreaks during late winter and early summer; and in Denmark an epidemic occurs every three years. The symptoms vary from fever, fatigue and the characteristic maculopapoulous erythema to asymptomatic

Human parvovirus B19, which infects and lyses erythroid precursors, can cause severe anemia in patients with immunodeficiency. The incidence of parvovirus infection in adult acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients is unknown. Eighty-one archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE)

To allow the ultrasensitive localization and the quantitative detection of parvovirus B19 nucleic acids in single infected cells at various times post-infection, a peptide nucleic acid (PNA)-based in situ hybridisation (ISH) assay with chemiluminescent detection has been developed. The assay is

Human parvovirus B19 is a cause of aplastic crises in patients with haemolytic anaemias, prolonged bone marrow failure in the immunosuppressed, and fetal death secondary to non-immune hydrops. The immunohistological detection of parvovirus B19 in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues has not
