Two separate studies (study I and study II) were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of ELISA serological test for the detection of IgG antibodies against specific glycolipid antigen (PGLTb1) and ESAT 6 antigen of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, respectively. These results were compared with bacteriological tests [Ziehl Neelson (ZN) staining for acid-fast bacilli and culture on Lowenstein Jensen (LJ...
BACKGROUND Micro-immunofluorescence (MIF) is widely used for chlamydia antibody testing (CAT). Recently a species-specific MIF and three enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) tests have been introduced. We compared five commercially available CAT tests, using laparoscopy as a reference, and evaluated whether combinations of tests could improve the predictive value of CAT. METHODS In a con...
BACKGROUND Hepatitis C virus infection is now one the common infection in Pakistan. Patients are routinely screened by antibody assays. Objective of this study was to assess the viremia in patients labelled as anti-HCV positive by ELISA. METHODS It this retrospective study patients labelled as anti HCV positive by ELISA were assessed for HCV RNA by polymerase chain reaction. The 254 HCV posit...
Seven serological tests, two immunochromatographic tests, ICT Tuberculosis and RAPID TEST TB, and five enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, TUBERCULOSIS IgA EIA, PATHOZYME-TB complex, PATHOZYME-MYCO IgG, PATHOZYME-MYCO IgA, and PATHOZYME-MYCO IgM, were evaluated simultaneously with 298 serum samples from three groups of individuals: 44 patients with active tuberculosis, 204 controls who had unde...
The importance of syphilis serological tests demands that laboratory reports are reliable. Internal quality control applied to the organisation of a syphilis serology service improves laboratory bench performance and reporting. Described here are internal quality control procedures of a department that serves a genitourinary medicine clinic and conducts 70 000 tests a year to investigate for sy...
The diagnosis of schistosomiasis in individuals from countries where the disease is not endemic is challenging, and few data are available on the accuracy of serological diagnosis in those patients. We evaluated the performance of eight serological assays, including four commercial kits, in the diagnosis of imported schistosomiasis in individuals from areas where the disease is not endemic, inc...
Analysis of serum from a patient with cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis showed a mixed cryoglobulin with a monoclonal IgM kappa-antiglobulin component (6.5 mg/ml), strong rheumatoid factor activity (latex titre 1/5000), and positive serological tests for syphilis (fluorescent treponemal antibody-absorbed and Treponema pallidum haemagglutination assay). After removal of antiglobulin activity...
Purpose] Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection should be detected in all patients before progressing to active tuberculosis (TB) ; however, interferon-γ release assays (IGRAs) and serological assays cannot accurately detect TB infection in all patients. Therefore, we conducted a prospective study to determine whether TB infections in patients with active pulmonary TB could be reliably dete...
INTRODUCTION Positive serological tests for hepatitis viruses B and C at blood banks are an important reason for blood deferral. Additionally, high residual risk for transfusing hepatitis-contaminated blood has been estimated in southern Brazil. This study aimed to identify risk factors for positive serological tests for viral hepatitis (VH) in blood donors (BD). METHODS A case-control study ...
