FII haemagglutination test for serum antigammaglobulin factors in Still's disease.
The nosological status of Still's disease (juvenile chronic polyarthritis) in relation to adult rheumatoid arthritis has been widely debated; one of the major differences is the markedly lower frequency of rheumatoid factor in the former even at low titres. Bywaters, Carter, and Scott (1959) reported that only 13-4 per cent. of 142 patients had a positive Waaler-Rose or differential agglutinati...
متن کاملFII haemagglutination test for serum antigammaglobulin factors in arthritides sero-positive and sero-negative by other tests.
The serological tests for rheumatoid serum factors fall into two categories, in which rabbit antibody and human gamma globulin respectively provide the reactant. Clinically, the chief use of these tests for serum antiglobulin factors is to assist diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis, and serum titres above given levels are commonly regarded as "positive". In most tests the "positive" level has bee...
متن کاملA haemagglutination and haemagglutination inhibition test for bluetongue virus.
Haemagglutination of bluetongue virus (BTV) was demonstrated for the first time by making use of a purified preparation of the virus. The reaction was found to be independent of variations in the pH, temperature, buffer system and origin of the erythrocytes used in the test. A haemagglutination inhibition test, subsequently developed, was demonstrated to be serotype specific. The storage of the...
متن کاملTreponemal haemagglutination test.
The introduction of the treponemal immobilization (TPI) test by Nelson and Mayer (1949) provided the first verification test for syphilis which proved fully acceptable to the clinician. After 20 years it is still accepted by a large body of opinion as the verification test of choice for the diagnosis of latent and late syphilis.

متن کاملThe haemagglutination test for toxoplasma antibodies.
Four hundred and forty-six patients' sera from a hospital blood transfusion department in Newcastle were examined for toxoplasma antibodies by a haemagglutination test. Forty per cent. of the sera gave positive reactions, and an increase in the percentage of positive sera was found with increasing age, rising to over 60% at the age of 70 and over. A wide range of titres was demonstrated amongst...
