Immunofluorescence in Dermatology
Kamlesh Kumar
May-June 1974, 40(3):128-134
The article reviews the use of immunofluorescence in diagnosis and how it helps in defining the pathomechanism of various diseases. The methods of preparation of conjugated antisera, their standardization and use are described. The two principle techniques are direct staining in which fluorescein labelled antibody is added to detect substances i.e. antigen in the tissues and indirect staining, in which unconjugated antibody is added to the section, and any fixed antibody is detected by the subsequent addition of conjugated antiglobulin sera. It has greatly increased the opportunity to diagnose pemphigus, pemphigoid, dermatitis herpetiformis, lupus erythematosus and certain other dermatological disorders particularly in atypical cases.

A Thammayya, N Basu, Maya Sanyal
May-June 1974, 40(3):112-116
Ten cases of black grain mycetoma of foot are described. The micromorphology of the black grain sections, made manually, was in correlation with the cultural study. Madurelia grisea was isolated from 9 cases and.Madurella mycetomi from one. Cultural, morphological, physiological and biochemical properties of 9 isolates of M. grisea and one of M. mycetomi isolated from the cases, were inconformity with those of type species. There was involvement of bony tissues in both the types of infection. The disease followed previous trauma in 2 cases and was localised even in the cases of 18 years duration. There was higher predilection of adult males than females to this disease, but occupation had no relation. The prevalence of these infections in India are discussed.
