Measurement of amikacin in serum by a latex agglutination inhibition test

Comparative Measurement of Rheumatoid Factor in Serum and Synovial Fluid of Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients by ELISA and Latex-Agglutination Test

Rheumatoid factors (RF) are autoantibodies with specificity for the Fc portion of human IgG. Production of RF is a characteristic feature of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is detectable in high titer in about 90% of these patients. In this study, we measured total IgM, IgA, IgMRF and IgARF in serum and synovial fluid of 45 RA patients by ELISA and the results were compared with those obtained b...

Detection of rotavirus by Latex Agglutination Test (Rotales); Comparison with Electron Microscopy and Complement Fixation Test

Rapid latex agglutination inhibition reaction test for morphine in urine

A simple and rapid immunoassay of morphine based on latex agglutination inhibition reaction has been developed. Morphine-6-succinate is a morphine derivative, and its bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugates were synthesized and characterized. The hapten density in the conjugate was determined spectroscopically to be 8.2 mol per mol of BSA. It was found that morphine-6-succinyl-BSA (M-6-S-BSA) exh...

Latex agglutination test for measurement of antibodies to meningococcal polysaccharides.

A latex agglutination test employing serogroup-specific meningococcal polysaccharides as the antigen has been developed. The test has been used to measure serological responses in patients with meningococcal disease, in meningococcal carriers, and in volunteers who received meningococcal vaccines. It has been shown to be a sensitive and highly specific test for the detection of group-specific m...
