Evaluation of serological tests for diagnosis of brucellosis.
The aim of the present study was to compare serological tests (Rose Bengal [RB]; standard agglutination test [SAT]; enzyme immunoassay [EIA] for detection of IgM, IgA, and IgG; and 2-mercaptoethanol [2-ME] test) that are routinely used in patients prediagnosed with different clinical types of brucellosis (acute, subacute, or chronic), and to evaluate the results of the IgG avidity test. Ninety-...
متن کاملLatent class evaluation of three serological tests for the diagnosis of human brucellosis in Bangladesh
BACKGROUND A Bayesian latent class evaluation was used to estimate the true prevalence of brucellosis in livestock farmers and patients with prolonged pyrexia (PP) and to validate three conditionally dependent serological tests: indirect ELISA (iELISA), Rose Bengal Test (RBT), and standard tube agglutination (STAT). A total of 335 sera from livestock farmers and 300 sera from PP patients were i...
متن کاملSerological Diagnosis of Brucellosis
Methods: Review the recent literature on brucellosis serology diagnostic tests. The choice of the testing strategy depends on the prevailing brucellosis epidemiological situation and the goal of testing. Results: The ‘gold standard’ for the diagnosis of brucellosis is isolation and identification of the causative bacterium, a member of Brucella sp. Isolation of Brucella sp. requires high securi...
متن کاملEVALUATION OF !FA, IHA AND BLA TESTS IN THE SEROLOGICAL DIAGNOSIS OF AMEBIC LIVER ABSCESS
As there was not any previous comprehensive study on the serological tests for hepatic amebiasis in Iran, the indirect hemagglutination (IHA), indirect fluorescent antibody (IF A), and biocolored latex agglutination (BLA) tests were evaluated in the serodiagnosis of amebic liver abscess(ALA).

Although many serological tests and new automated blood culture techniques have been developed to diagnose brucellosis, there are still significant problems in the diagnosis of the disease. The present work aimed to evaluate the diagnostic yield of the two main serological tests used for diagnosis of brucellos...
