چکیده

The correlation between the modified counterimmunoelectrophoresis test and the indirect fluorescent-antibody test for detecting rabies virus antibodies in human sera was studied, using as a reference the standard mouse neutralization test. Higher sensitivity was observed with the counterimmunoelectrophoresis technique than with the indirect fluorescent-antibody method. The counterimmunoelectrophoresis test provides a practical quantitative alternative to the indirect fluorescent-antibody method.
