Since for both tests zero lies within the intervals, we are unable to conclude that either complement-fixation test reflects a difference between the patients and the control population.

A nucleoprotein complement-fixation test to assist in the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus is evaluated. There were 25 positive reactions in 600 serum specimens tested.

Positive samples are confirmed through the complement fixation test and the serum agglutination test. Once confirmed in the laboratory, infected animals are slaughtered.

To prevent the spread of Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP), the complement fixation test (CFT) diagnostic kit is a quick solution for a first level of information.

Wilson and Sarich’s classic 1969 paper made just this sort of progress by integrating several kinds of molecular evidence of protein differences among humans, apes, Old World monkeys, and New World ...

Objectives The goals of these studies were to elucidate the inter-relationships of specific anti-nuclear antibody (ANA), complement, and the interferon gene signature (IGS) in the pathogenesis of ...

Given the potential importance of complement-fixation by antibodies, it is important to further define the specific regions of CSP targeted and the antibody properties required for maximal function.

“If this test requires an outpatient room, I guarantee it will still be quicker to do an immunodiffusion or complement fixation test,” Purdie said. The test could open doors, however, for researchers ...

The other supplementary tests, such as the complement fixation (CF) test and ELISA, require special equipment, reagents and trained personnel. The Rose Bengal plate (RBP) test has shown potential as a ...
