متن کاملSerodiagnosis of Trichomonas vaginalis infection
The indirect fluorescent antibody test was used to detect antibodies to Trichomonas vaginalis in 200 antenatal patients. A total of 104 (52%) gave a positive reaction with antigen prepared from cultures of trichomonas isolated from seven of the patients. Antitrichomonal antibody was detected at a 1/4 dilution in 90% of patients with proven trichomoniasis, while the highest dilution at which ant...
