Development of a simple serological method for diagnosing leptospirosis: a microcapsule agglutination test.
A passive microcapsule agglutination test for the diagnosis of leptospirosis was developed by utilizing chemically stable microcapsules instead of sheep erythrocytes. In the test, sonically disrupted antigens of leptospira were sensitized to microcapsules treated with glutaraldehyde. Compared with the microscopic agglutination test, the passive microcapsule agglutination test showed a relativel...
متن کاملdevelopment of a latex agglutination test as a simple and rapid method for diagnosis of trichomonas vaginalis infection
trichomoniasis is a worldwide infection and due to its complications rapid and accurate diagnosis of infection especially in pregnant women is very important. in this study, development of a latex agglutination test using native antigens for rapid diagnosis of trichomoniasis is investigated. trichomonas vaginalis was harvested from tyis33 culture medium and anti trichomonas vaginalis antiserum ...
متن کاملMicrocapsule agglutination test for Treponema pallidum antibodies. A new serodiagnostic test for syphilis.
For the serodiagnosis of syphilis a quantitative passive agglutination (MCA-TP) test for antibodies to Treponema pallidum was performed with chemically stable microcapsules with no antigenic activity instead of with conventional sheep erythrocytes. The microcapsules were easily sensitised with the antigen of sonicated Treponema pallidum by treatment with glutaraldehyde. Compared with the Trepon...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Latex Agglutination Method for Diagnosis of Rotavirus Infections
Background: Rotavirus is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among children with gastroenteritis. Since the discovery of rotaviruses, several techniques have been used for their laboratory diagnosis; those included Electron Microscopy (EM) and enzyme immunoassay. These methods, however, are expensive and not readily available everywhere. We have developed a technique which can be used for ...
متن کاملSimple latex agglutination assay for rapid serodiagnosis of human leptospirosis.
A newly developed latex agglutination assay for the detection of genus-specific Leptospira antibodies in human sera was evaluated. The assay is performed by mixing, on an agglutination card, serum with equal volumes of stabilized antigen-coated, dyed test and control latex beads and is read within 2 min. The latex agglutination test was evaluated with groups of serum samples from patients with ...
