A Complement-Fixation Test for Kala-Azar

A Complement Fixation Test for Poliomyelitis

A macroscopic (tube) complement fixation test for poliomyelitis, using infected tissue culture fluids, is described. The test was applied to 27 individuals with a clinical diagnosis of poliomyelitis. In 18 patients it was possible to make a laboratory diagnosis of poliomyelitis on the basis of a rise in complement-fixing antibody titer and in 4 others on the basis of a high stationary antibody ...

Studies on a complement fixation test for Herpes simplex.

Although the neutralization test is, in general, satisfactory for immunologic studies with a diversity of viruses, it is cumbersome and expensive. The complement fixation test, in contrast, is simple and rapid and has been successfully applied to a number of viral diseases, especially for diagnostic purposes. In the case of herpes simplex virus infections, however, the literature concerning the...

Detection of rotavirus by Latex Agglutination Test (Rotales); Comparison with Electron Microscopy and Complement Fixation Test

Quantitative micro-complement fixation test.

A quantitative micro-complement fixation test capable of detecting nanogram quantities of antigen is described. The test is simple to perform and is highly reproducible. Typical results from three antigen-antibody systems are given.
