Diagnosis of acute bacterial pneumonia in Nigerian children. Value of needle aspiration of lung of countercurrent immunoelectrophoresis.
Eighty-eight Nigerian children with untreated, severe, acute pneumonia were investigated by standard bacteriological techniques (blood culture and culture of pharyngeal secretions) and by needle aspiration of the consolidated lung. Countercurrent immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) against grouped pneumococcal and Haemophilus influenzae type b antisera was carried out on serum samples from 45 patients....
متن کاملApplication of Counter Immunoelectrophoresis (cie) in the Diagnosis of Hydatidosis in Buffaloes
A study was undertaken to assess the sensitivity and specificity of Counter Immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) in the diagnosis of hydatidosis in buffaloes using sera samples collected at the time of slaughter. One hundred sera samples from buffaloes were screened for hydatidosis using fertile buffalo hydatid cyst fluid as antigen by CIE. Out of the 100 sera samples used, 61 were positive for hydatid ...
متن کاملSerological grouping of hemolytic streptococci by counter-immunoelectrophoresis.
The counter-immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) method of grouping streptococci was more sensitive than the capillary precipitin method. The precipitate was easier to read, and the test was simple to perform and required fewer reagents. An autoclave-Pronase-B extraction procedure is described and was found superior to either acid, Pronase-B, or the autoclave extraction procedures for recovering groupab...
متن کاملUse of Counter and rocket immunoelectrophoresis in acute respiratory infections due to Streptococcus pneumoniae.
The use of Counter immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) for the detection of pneumococcal capsular antigen in the sputum and serum of patients suffering from acute respiratory infections is described. The CIE of sputum gave positive results in 224 (99%) out of 225 samples in which Streptococcus pneumoniae was isolated by cultural techniques, and in 23 (9%) out of 262 samples in which no or other potenti...
متن کاملSerological studies of Actinomyces israelii by crossed immunoelectrophoresis: taxonomic and diagnostic applications.
Crossed immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) with intermediate gel was applied to the serological analysis of Actinomyces israelii to develop a test with high efficiency in the laboratory diagnosis of human actinomycosis and classification of A. israelii. Recently developed standard antigen-antibody systems for A. israelii by CIE were used as reference. The reference systems were based on standard prepa...
