Value of indirect hemagglutination and coagglutination tests for serotyping Haemophilus parasuis.
An indirect hemagglutination test (IHA) and a coagglutination test (CA) were evaluated using saline, boiled, and autoclaved extracts for serotyping Haemophilus parasuis. CA showed several cross-reactions, whereas IHA gave rise to specific reactions, with minor exceptions. IHA was further compared with the immunodiffusion test (the "gold standard") for the serotyping of 67 field isolates. As a c...
متن کاملComparison of the indirect haemagglutination and gel diffusion test for serotyping Haemophilus parasuis.
The aim of this study was to compare the use of indirect haemagglutination (IHA) and gel diffusion (GD) tests for serotyping Haemophilus parasuis by the Kielstein-Rapp-Gabrielson (KRG) scheme. All 15 serovar reference strains, 72 Australian field isolates, nine Chinese field isolates, and seven isolates from seven experimentally infected pigs were evaluated with both tests. With the IHA test, 1...
متن کاملIdentification and serotyping of Haemophilus pleuropneumoniae by coagglutination test.
A coagglutination test for the identification and serotyping of Haemophilus pleuropneumoniae is described. A total of 360 H. pleuropneumoniae strains were isolated from pulmonary tissues of feeder pigs which died of acute pleuropneumonia. All of the isolates were serotyped by coagglutination, and the results were confirmed by the ring precipitation test. The most common serotype isolated in Que...
متن کاملCharacterization of Chinese Haemophilus parasuis Isolates by Traditional Serotyping and Molecular Serotyping Methods
Haemophilus parasuis is classified mainly through serotyping, but traditional serotyping always yields non-typable (NT) strains and unreliable results via cross-reactions. Here, we surveyed the serotype prevalence of Chinese H. parasuis isolates using traditional serotyping (gel immuno-diffusion test, GID) and molecular serotyping (multiplex PCR, mPCR). We also investigated why discrepant resul...
متن کاملSerology of Legionnaires disease: comparison of indirect fluorescent antibody, immune adherence hemagglutination, and indirect hemagglutination tests.
An immune adherence hemagglutination (IAHA) test for the measurement of antibodies to Legionella pneumophila was developed and evaluated for the diagnosis of Legionnaires disease. Its sensitivity was compared to that of the indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) test and a recently developed indirect hemagglutination (IHA) test. The sensitivity of the three tests appeared to be similar, with the I...
