Flocculation Reaction as Test of Liver Function

Thymol Turbidity as a Liver Function Test

Plasma cholinesterase activity in liver disease: its value as a diagnostic test of liver function compared with flocculation tests and plasma protein determinations.

A Specific Flocculation Reaction Occurring

The study of the antigenic properties of lipoidai substances extracted from antigenic material by alcohol, ether, or other fat solvents has included investigation of the significance of lipoidal constituents of the red blood cell in the formation of lysins and agglutinins, the action of alcoholic extracts of organs in the production of heterogenetic antibodies and their reaction with Forssman's...

Significance of Cephalin-cholesterol Flocculation Test

The effect of malarial fever on hepatic physiology has recently been investigated. It has been found (1) that considerable bromsulphthalein retention, a marked reduction in cholesterol and cholesterol esters, a moderate fall in phospholipids, diminished hippuric acid excretion and a strongly positive cephalin-cholesterol flocculation reaction resulted when malaria was induced in 9 patients by i...

Abnormality on Liver Function Test

Children with abnormal liver function can often be seen in outpatient clinics or inpatients wards. Most of them have respiratory disease, or gastroenteritis by virus infection, accompanying fever. Occasionally, hepatitis by the viruses causing systemic infection may occur, and screening tests are required. In patients with jaundice, the tests for differential diagnosis and appropriate treatment...
