Rapid laboratory identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae by coagglutination.
We compared the Phadebact Gonococcus Test with conventional methods in identifying 210 strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Of these, 209 strains were correctly identified (99.5%).
متن کاملSerological classification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae with monoclonal antibody coagglutination reagents.
A total of 357 clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from 286 patients were classified serologically using two independently developed panels of monoclonal coagglutination reagents. The Pharmacia (Ph) Diagnostics panel comprised 14 reagents, five specific for serogroup WI strains and nine specific for serogroup WII/III strains, whereas the Genetic Systems (GS) panel comprised 14 reagents, ...
متن کاملIdentification of clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae by a coagglutination test.
Ninety-eight per cent of laboratory isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from a veneral disease clinic gave positive reactions with a gonococcal coagglutination test. The prototype reagent, however, was poor at distinguishing between different species of the genus Neisseria: 75% of strains of Neisseria meningitidis and 40% of other Neisseria species tested gave positive reactions. None of the orig...
متن کاملEvaluation of the coagglutination test for the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in primary cultures.
The coagglutination (COA) test for the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae was compared with immunofluorescence and sugar degradation tests on 1710 gonococcal isolates, 72 of which produce beta-lactamase. The COA test gave a positive result for 98.6% of the strains. Treatment of suspensions with Streptomyces enzyme reduced the incidence of inconclusive results due to autoagglutination to 1....
متن کاملImmunological identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae with monoclonal and polyclonal antibody coagglutination reagents.
The reliability of immunological identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae using polyclonal and monoclonal antibody coagglutination reagents has been evaluated. When clinical isolates of neisseriae were tested in an "in use" trial the sensitivity and specificity of each reagent were similar and the overall agreement with carbohydrate utilisation was 97.9% (141/144) for the polyclonal antibody rea...
