Sensitive hemagglutination inhibition test for mumps antibody

Comparison of Micro Neutralization Test with Hemadsorption-Inhibition Test, and Immunoflrorescence Technique for Detecting Mumps Antibodies

Preparation of an Inactivated Egg Drop Syndrome Antigen for Using in Hemagglutination Inhibition Test.

To prepare hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antigen the egg drop syndrome virus (EDSV) was propagated in 10-day-old embryonated duck eggs. The virus antigen was inactivated with two methods including heating (65°C) and adding 0.5% formaldehyde by considering low destroying effect on hemagglutination (HA) and HI titers. The EDSV HI titers of 310 sera and 100 yolks obtained from 23 chicken farms ...

Comparison of hemagglutination inhibition test and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for determining antibody to rubella virus.

The hemagglutination inhibition test (HAI) and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting antibody to rubella virus were compared by testing 25 sets of paired sera taken before and after infection and 10 sets of sera taken during acute and convalescent stages of the disease and by screening 700 serum samples from the Collaborative Perinatal Project, NIH/NINCDS. The tests were f...

Indirect hemagglutination test for pseudorabies antibody detection in swine.

An indirect hemagglutination test for the detection of antibodies in swine serum specific for pseudorabies virus is described. The indirect hemagglutination test was less time consuming than the standardized virus nertralization test while being highly sensitive and accurate. Serum samples that were toxic to virus neutralization indicator cells were readily tested in the indirect hemagglutinati...

Simple hemagglutination inhibition test for the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis.

A simple hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test for the serological diagnosis of toxoplasmosis has been developed and evaluated. A total of 84 human and 120 mouse serum samples were tested by the newly developed HI test and compared with an immunoglobulin G-indirect fluorescent antibody test. Statistical analysis of serum titers obtained by using the HI test and the immunoglobulin G-indirect flu...
