Haemagglutination reaction in Indian childhood cirrhosis indicating viral aetiology.
tests which assess distal tubular function (Broberger Winberg, and Zetterstrom, 1960). The disorder may appear at different ages and have variable rates of progression, even within the same family, but it usually takes a rapid course in childhood, while a more protracted course is common in adults (Axelsson and Odlund, 1968). The aetiology of nephronophthisis is obscure. Bacterial infection is ...
متن کاملPolymerase Chain Reaction for the Diagnosis of Tuberculosis
Dear Editor-in-Chief We read with interest the study by Khazaei et al. (1) in which the authors have nicely concluded that PCR is more sensitive test than Ziehl-Neelsen staining and histo-pathological examination for the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). They have rightly pointed to use PCR, selectively, in acidfast bacilli negative paucibacillary forms of TB. However, we intend to highlight few...
متن کاملThe Middlebrook-Dubos haemagglutination test and its haemolytic modification in the diagnosis of tuberculosis.
The detection of serum antibodies to M. tuberculosis by the agglutination of sheep's red cells previously sensitized with an aqueous extract of phenol-treated bacilli of the H 37/Rv strain was first reported by Middlebrook and Dubos (1948). The short series of tests using human and rabbit sera reported by these authors suggested that the reaction was specific. They showed also that the activity...
متن کاملA haemagglutination and haemagglutination inhibition test for bluetongue virus.
Haemagglutination of bluetongue virus (BTV) was demonstrated for the first time by making use of a purified preparation of the virus. The reaction was found to be independent of variations in the pH, temperature, buffer system and origin of the erythrocytes used in the test. A haemagglutination inhibition test, subsequently developed, was demonstrated to be serotype specific. The storage of the...
متن کاملTuberculosis paradoxical reaction.
T is endemic in this part of the world. We frequently encounter patients with both pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis regardless of whether they are infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or not. It is not uncommon for physicians to see clinical or radiological, or both, worsening of the disease while their patient is on anti-tuberculous treatment, the so-called paradoxical rea...
