Treponemal haemagglutination test.
The introduction of the treponemal immobilization (TPI) test by Nelson and Mayer (1949) provided the first verification test for syphilis which proved fully acceptable to the clinician. After 20 years it is still accepted by a large body of opinion as the verification test of choice for the diagnosis of latent and late syphilis. The test's characteristic of becoming positive towards the end of ...
متن کاملA haemagglutination and haemagglutination inhibition test for bluetongue virus.
Haemagglutination of bluetongue virus (BTV) was demonstrated for the first time by making use of a purified preparation of the virus. The reaction was found to be independent of variations in the pH, temperature, buffer system and origin of the erythrocytes used in the test. A haemagglutination inhibition test, subsequently developed, was demonstrated to be serotype specific. The storage of the...
متن کاملFluorescent treponemal antibody inhibition test.
The fluorescent treponemal antibody (FTA-200) test has been shown to detect at least two types of antibody in syphilitic serum; one of these, which can be removed by absorption with Reiter treponemes, is thought to be a group antibody which reacts with an antigen shared by Treponema pallidum and other treponemes (Deacon and Hunter, 1962). A second antibody, which remains after such an absorptio...
متن کاملHemagglutination treponemal test for syphilis.
Sera from 290 hospital patients were tested to compare the sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility of the hemagglutination treponemal test for syphilis (HATTS) with the fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption test (FTA-ABS). Complete agreement was obtained between the methods when 142 syphilitic sera from patients with various stages of syphilis were tested. By using clinical histories...
متن کاملThe haemagglutination test for toxoplasma antibodies.
Four hundred and forty-six patients' sera from a hospital blood transfusion department in Newcastle were examined for toxoplasma antibodies by a haemagglutination test. Forty per cent. of the sera gave positive reactions, and an increase in the percentage of positive sera was found with increasing age, rising to over 60% at the age of 70 and over. A wide range of titres was demonstrated amongst...
