Evaluation of the Phadebact Test for identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
The Phadebact Gonococcus Test (Pharmacia Diagnostics, Piscataway, N.J.) is used for the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. In this test, boiled organisms are examined by using a 3-min coagglutination technique. A total of 313 isolates of Neisseria confirmed by the fluorescent-antibody technique or identified to the species level by the cysteine-tryptose agar utilization technique, were te...
متن کاملA rapid slid coagglutination test-an alternative to the fluorescent antibody test for the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
The Phadebact(R) Gonococcus Test, a slide coagglutination test, was compared with the Difco fluorescent antibody test for the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolated from 18- to 24-hour primary plates. A total of 316 morphologically characteristic, oxidase-positive, Gram-negative diplococci were tested. Altogether 298 isolates were identified definitively as N. gonorrhoeae by a rapid c...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Phadebact Gonococcus Test in the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in a routine diagnostic laboratory.
The Phadebact Gonococcus Test, a coagglutination procedure for the confirmation of identity of presumptive N gonorrhoeae isolates, was evaluated under normal working conditions in a routine diagnostic laboratory and compared with an immunofluorescence technique. Of 166 isolates of N gonorrhoeae from urogenital, rectal, and pharyngeal sites, 164 gave a positive coagglutination reaction, and one ...
متن کاملIdentification of clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae by a coagglutination test.
Ninety-eight per cent of laboratory isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from a veneral disease clinic gave positive reactions with a gonococcal coagglutination test. The prototype reagent, however, was poor at distinguishing between different species of the genus Neisseria: 75% of strains of Neisseria meningitidis and 40% of other Neisseria species tested gave positive reactions. None of the orig...
متن کاملPhadebact Monoclonal GC OMNI Test for confirmation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
The Phadebact Monoclonal GC OMNI Test (Pharmacia Diagnostics, Piscataway, N.J.) is used for the definitive identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. In this test, boiled organisms are examined by using a 1-min coagglutination technique. A total of 776 Neisseria strains, confirmed to the species level by patterns of acid production from carbohydrates incorporated in cysteine-tryptose agar or morp...
