Treponema pallidum haemagglutination test for yaws. Comparison with the TPI and FTA-ABS tests.
Similar antibodies are produced in the serum of patients infected with the pathogenic treponemes T. pallidum and T. pertenue, and for this reason sera from persons with syphilis or yaws react similarly in the conventional tests for syphilis and in the Treponema pallidum immobilization (TPI) and fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption (FTAABS) tests. In the TPI and FTA-ABS tests T. pallidum i...
متن کاملTreponema pallidum haemagglutination test for syphilis. Comparison with TPI and FTA-ABS tests.
The Treponema pallidum haemagglutination (TPHA) test, the latest to be developed in the group of specific tests for syphilis, has been described by Tomizawa and Kasamatsu (1966), Rathlev (1967), Tomizawa, Kasamatsu, and Yamaya (1969), and Tringali (1970.) An automated microhaemagglutination technique, the AMHA-Tp test, has been evaluated by Cox, Logan, and Norins (1969) and Logan and Cox (1970)...
متن کاملTreponema pallidum immune adherence test for serodiagnosis of syphilis. 2: Comparison with glass plate, TPHA, and FTA-ABS tests.
Using sera from 340 patients with syphilis the Treponema pallidum immune adherence (TPIA) test was compared with the glass plate, T. pallidum haemagglutination (TPHA), and fluorescent treponemal antibody-absorbed (FTA-ABS) tests. The results of the TPIA test agreed with those of the glass plate, TPHA, and FTA-ABS tests in 65%, 82%, and 73% of cases respectively. In the quantitative TPIA test no...
متن کاملAbsorbed fluorescent treponemal antibody (FTA-ABS) test. Comparison with the FTA-200 and TPI tests on 1,056 problem sera.
Deacon and Hunter (1962) have shown that the fluorescent treponemal antibody (FTA) test detects two separate antibodies in syphilitic sera. One, a group antibody, reacts with other treponemes, such as the Reiter organism, Treponema microdentium, and Treponema zuelzerae, as well as with Treponema pallidum, presumably because of an antigen shared in common by these organisms. Removal of group ant...
متن کاملUse of T. pertenue in the fluorescent and immobilization tests. Investigation of sera from yaws areas found reactive only in the TPHA test.
In a previous study of the Treponema pallidum haemagglutination (TPHA) test on sera from patients in areas in which yaws is endemic, Garner, Backhouse, Daskalopolous, and Walsh (1972a) found 110 sera which were reactive only in the TPHA test. These sera were non-reactive in the cardiolipin Wassermann reaction (CWR), Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL), Reiter protein complement-fixation...
