VDRL slide flocculation reaction for syphilis performed on active sera.
The discovery of cardiolipin (Pangborn, 1941a) as the active agent in antigens for sero-reactions for syphilis enabled the production of chemically defined antigens, composed of cardiolipin, purified lecithin (Pangborn, 1941b), and cholesterol. Among the many tube and slide flocculation reactions based on the use of cardiolipin antigens, the Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL) slide flo...
متن کاملThe VDRL test in a blood transfusion service.
A survey has been made of the results of 12 months' VDRL screening in a blood transfusion service. Positive VDRL tests were found on 318 of the 73 350 blood donations collected during 1974. Thirty-four tests confirming specific treponemal infection were found in 24 donors. A battery of confirmatory tests showed the remaining 284 positive VDRL reactions from 235 donors to be biological false pos...
متن کاملComparison of the VDRL slide, TPI, and FTA-ABS tests in experimental syphilis in rabbits.
The first serological test for syphilis, developed by Wassermann, Neisser, and Bruck (1906), was a complement-fixation test for reagin activity. Many tests for reagin activity have been developed since then, including the Kline, Kahn, Hinton, Kolmer, Mazzini, and VDRL slide tests. However, none of these is absolutely specific for syphilis. The VDRL slide test (Harris, Rosenberg, and Riedel, 194...
متن کاملComparison of the Ide and Harris (VDRL) slide flocculation tests in Nigeria.
For over 10 years the Ide test has been in use in Nigeria as a simple slide flocculation test for syphilis and yaws in hospitals and clinics, and in the field, where the Kahn and Wassermann tests are impracticable. It was thought desirable that the results obtained by the Ide test should be compared with those obtained by the newly introduced Harris (VDRL) slide flocculation test, and an estima...
متن کاملComparison of the diagnostic value of local Widal slide test with imported Widal slide test.
A laboratory study comparing the Widal slide agglutination test using local antigens produced by Mekar Jaya Diagnostica (SAT-MJD) with imported antigens (Murex, Abbott) was carried out on 55 sera of typhoid fever patients with positive blood culture and 56 sera of non-typhoid febrile patients. The SAT-MJD antigens consisted of a mixture of 5 different phage-types of S. typhi dominantly found in...
