THE IMMUNODERMAL ASSAYS ILLUSTRATED

An idea was going on within my mind that was oriented towards preparing a text for immune skin testing in humans, rabbits, rats, mice and chicks. The presumed text bears the name “The immunodermal Assys Illustrated”. Thus, to investigate the originality of the idea, a dig through recent and rather old literature related to this topic, Four publications were found as in the followings;

• Brockow K, Mortaz CG 2019.Global Atlas of Skin Allergy, EAACI.knowledge Hub.
• Fiskin E et al.2023.Multimodal Skin Atlas identified a multicellular immuno-stromal community associated with altered conformation and specific T cell expansion in atopic dermatitis. bioRxiv.2023.Cold Spring Haber Laboratory.
• Light camera and action; Vertebrate skin tests, the stage for immune cell interactions with arthropod-vectored pathogen. Front. Immunol. 4; doi.10 ..fimmu.2013.00286.
• O’Neal K.2022.Mapping the Body’s Defense Systems: The Immune Cell Atlas. Technology Network. Com. Immunology Article36725.

The abovementioned publications were found spanning around the idea but not really within the considered theme. The present book theme is an excerpt of rather a decade of work in our laboratories at Babylon University from 1998 to 2014. Whereby I have been working as a professor in the Biology Department, College of Science. This assay book was intended to present curated information in an atlas form through the use of an easy simple lucid way and suggested for freshman immunology students and researchers.
