Summary Introduction

To determine:

How it is possible that a newborn’s antibodies against HIV were shown earlier through ELISA and after six months, the same test was negative.

Introduction:

For identifying various antibodies or antigens in the serum, scientists have developed various serological tests. A type of serological testing is the labeled antibody tests and ELISA is one of them. These are so named as labeled antibody tests because these tests require the molecules of antibodies which link to the labels (molecular) and could be easily detected.

Students have asked these similar questions
From your previous experiment, you found that this enhancer activates stripe 2 of eve expression. When you sequence this enhancer you find several binding sites for the gap gene, Giant. To test how Giant interacts with eve, you decide to remove all of the Giant binding sites from the eve enhancer. What results do you expect to see with respect to eve expression?
What experiment could you do to see if the maternal gene, bicoid, is sufficient to form anterior fates?
You’re curious about the effect that gap genes have on the pair-rule gene, evenskipped (eve), so you isolate and sequence each of the eve enhancers. You’re particularly interested in one of the enhancers, which is just upstream of the eve gene.  Describe an experimental technique you would use to find out where this particular eve enhancer is active.
