Widal's Typhoid Agglutination Reaction.

Detection of typhoid carriers by agglutination tests.

Use of the Vi agglutination test in the detection of chronic carriers of Salmonella typhi (S. typhosa) first was suggested by Felix et al. (1935). Since that time study of the test by many workers has resulted in the accumulation of a voluminous literature which has been reviewed by Klein (1943), Felix (1951), Landy and Lamb (1953), and Spaun (1957). Bhatnagar et al. (1938) recommended the use ...

Microcinematography of the Agglutination of Typhoid Bacilli.

Correlation studies on Widal agglutination reaction and diagnosis of typhoid fever.

A total of 80 patients at the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital (UUTH) suspected of having enteric infections were screened for the presence of Salmonella species using blood, urine and stool samples along with Widal agglutination tests. Although 39 patients tested positive for the Widal agglutination test with titers ranging from 1:80 to 1:320, no Salmonella organism was encountered in some ...
