Table 2.

Biochemical properties and immunoreactivity pattern of the proteins. Dot-blot assay was performed for each second dimension fraction containing the proteins identified. The reactivity was quantified into pixels unit and graded according to reactivity intensity with respect to that of the crude parasite antigen to obtain relative reactive intensity. Using the relative reactive intensity, each reactive spot was scored as ‘weak reactivity’ (−), ‘moderate reactivity’ (±) or ‘strong reactivity’ (+). In addition to reactive pattern, proteins were characterized using GRAVY index (ProtParam tool), number of antigenic determinant contained in the full amino acid length and the antigenic propensity where >1 indicates high antigenic character. In this Table antibody reactivity pattern is not repeated for proteins from the same fraction well.
