Specificity and sensitivity of the Reiter protein complement-fixation (RPCF) test. Report on 1,400 selected sera.
The reliability of the sero-diagnosis of syphilis depends on the specificity and the sensitivity of the tests used. The specificity of a test is determined by the nature of the antigen; the sensitivity depends mainly on the technique by which the test is performed. The most specific though not the most sensitive test at the moment is, without doubt, the T. pallidum immobilization (TPI) test of ...
متن کاملTPHA and RPL tests for yaws antibodies.
Numerous serological studies have been done on people living as natives in yaws endemic territories (Guthe, Ridet, Vorst, D'Costa, and Grab, 1972; Garner, Backhouse, Daskalopoulos, and Walsh, 1972) to establish epidemiological patterns or evaluate mass treatment. The local population ofNew Zealand has no yaws; however, there is a large influx of immigrant Pacific Islanders with yaws antibodies....
متن کاملReiter protein antigen. I. Relationship of some physical and chemical characteristics to serological activity.
The Italian workers D'Alessandro, Oddo, Comes, and Dardanoni (1949) and D'Alessandro and Dardanoni (1953) described the isolation of four serologically active components of Reiter's treponeme. These contributions represent milestones in the sero-diagnosis of syphilis since they were the initial systematic investigations into the serological components of treponemes. One of the components was co...

متن کاملAssessment of the Reiter Protein Complement-fixation (rpcf) Test in a Routine Serological
At St. Thomas's Hospital we were led to try the RPCF test by the preliminary report of De Bruijn (1957), in which he showed with 116 syphilitic sera that this test was considerably more sensitive than the Wassermann reaction (WR). The technique appeared simple, the antigen was available commercially and the test was in no way difficult for the routine laboratory. De Bruijn gave no precise detai...
