Such cases are now infrequent and we publish these results in the hope that further knowledge of the efficiency of this test may be sou...
متن کاملFluorescent antibody test for the serological diagnosis of gonorrhea.
An indirect fluorescent antibody technique has been developed for the serological diagnosis of gonorrhea. The selected strain(s) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae possesses a heat-labile surface antigen (L-antigen). Sera are diluted 1:10, and an aliquot is hear inactivated at 59 C for 30 min.
