Serological investigation for treponemal infection of artisan recruits in South Persia.
Routine serological examination of candidates for artisan employment with the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company in Abadan began in the autumn of 1949, and 1,725 reports were available by the spring of 1950. The men were all subjected to physical examination, and apart from occasional reports of an old genital scar none of them had any clinical evidence of syphilis at the time of the serological investi...
متن کاملSerological tests for treponemal infection in leprosy patients. An evaluation of the fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption (FTA--ABS) test.
Much has been written about the biological false positive (BFP) reaction demonstrated by reagin tests applied to sera from patients suffering from leprosy. It is well known that a BFP reaction is in all but a very small minority of cases proved or disproved by recourse to specific tests for treponemal infection, i.e. the Treponema pallidum immobilization (TPI) test and/or the fluorescent trepon...
متن کاملA serological survey of Leptospiral infection of cats in Ahvaz, south-western of Iran
Leptospirosis is a zoonosis with numerous reservoir hosts. The disease is caused by infection with various serovars of Leptospira interrogans sensu lato. This study was conducted to evaluate the seroprevalence of leptospiral infection in stray cats in Ahvaz (south-western Iran) from April 2007 to June 2008. Blood samples were collected from 102 stray cats and screened for leptospiral infection ...
متن کاملImmunological studies on treponemal cellular antigens. I. Serological changes and resistance to infection in rabbits immunized with treponemal nucleic acids.
Immunochemical as well as serological studies by various investigators (Cannefax and Garson, 1959; Christiansen, 1964; D'Alessandro and Dardanoni, 1952; Izzat, Dacres, Knox, and Wende, 1970) have shown that avirulent strains of Treponema pallidum, like other micro-organisms, possess a complex antigenic structure. These complexes include protein, polysaccharide, and lipid components. To our know...
متن کاملSerological Investigation of Granulocytic Ehrlichia Infection in Sheep in Norway
Serum samples of 749 sheep from 75 sheep flocks in Norway, i.e. 361 lambs (6 to 7 months old) and 388 adults (> 1.5 year), were analysed for antibodies to Ehrlichia equi. Ten animals from each flock were examined. Seropositive animals were found along the coast of southern Norway from Vestfold to Sør-Trøndelag (as far north as 63 degrees 38'N). Seropositive sheep were not found in southeast, ea...
