Rapid fluorescent-antibody staining technique.

The rapid fluorescent-antibody staining technique described by Kellogg and Deacon for staining Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Treponema pallidum was applied to fluorescent-antibody tests for group A streptococci and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli. Results obtained with this staining technique were compared with results using the conventional staining procedure; excellent correlation was obtained....

Indirect fluorescent antibody technique in the serology of Toxoplasma gondi

SYNOPSIS The indirect fluorescent antibody technique has been used to titrate patients' antibody against Toxoplasma gondii. Rigorous tests of the immunological validity of the method were made. The reactions of the gamma globulin of human immune serum with Toxoplasma gondii and fluorescent rabbit anti-human gamma globulin were thus shown to be specific. Thereafter the technique could be used wi...

Improved diagnosis of farmer's lung using the fluorescent antibody technique.

Boyd, G. and Paffatt, D. (1974). Thorax, 29, 417-420. Improved diagnosis of farmer's lung using the fluorescent antibody technique. In the west of Scotland 20 of 40 farmers surveyed had symptoms of farmer's lung. Ten of this group (50%) gave positive precipitin reactions to Micropolyspora faeni. The fluorescent antibody test was positive in all those with symptoms and also in one who had no cli...
