The Reiter protein complement-fixation test using the Auto-Analyzer.
A method for the Reiter protein complement-fixation test using the Techncon AutoAnalyzer is described. Two hundred and fifty sera were tested, when six false-positive and nine false-negative results were obtained when compared with results obtained by the manual method. Deep freezing the sera before testing on the AutoAnalyzer increased the sensitivity so that in a further 250 sera tested no fa...
متن کاملQuantitative micro-complement fixation test.
A quantitative micro-complement fixation test capable of detecting nanogram quantities of antigen is described. The test is simple to perform and is highly reproducible. Typical results from three antigen-antibody systems are given.
متن کاملFalse positive reactions to the Reiter protein complement-fixation (RPCF) test.
As previously reported (Pillot, Betz, Colombani, and Ripault, 1965), the Reiter Protein ComplementFixation (RPCF) test gives false positive reactions in 0 05 to 0 5 per cent. of cases as a consequence of an antipolysaccharide antibody present in the serum of some individuals. Since, during the years 1960-67, we have performed this test routinely on every patient hospitalized in our clinic, we h...
متن کاملAdvantage of a routine Reiter protein complement-fixation test in the serodiagnosis of syphilis in pregnancy.
One hundred and twenty-seven (0.3%) reactive serological tests for syphilis were obtained by routine examination of sera from 35,912 antenatal patients.Forty-eight (38%) of these reactive sera were associated with reactive fluorescent treponemal antibody and Treponema pallidum immobilization results and these patients were therefore considered to show serological evidence of treponemal infectio...
متن کاملSpecificity and sensitivity of the Reiter protein complement-fixation (RPCF) test. Report on 1,400 selected sera.
The reliability of the sero-diagnosis of syphilis depends on the specificity and the sensitivity of the tests used. The specificity of a test is determined by the nature of the antigen; the sensitivity depends mainly on the technique by which the test is performed. The most specific though not the most sensitive test at the moment is, without doubt, the T. pallidum immobilization (TPI) test of ...
