Microagglutination procedures for febrile agglutination tests. [PDF]
Febrile agglutination tests were done by using as antigens Brucella abortus, Salmonella group D, Proteus OX19, and Pasteurella tularensis. Comparison of results from 23 sera showed that the microtechnique, rapid slide, and test tube methods gave similar ...

A QUICK MACROSCOPIC TYPHOID AGGLUTINATION TEST [PDF]
The method here proposed for making the typhoid agglutination test requires an ordinary microscope slide, or other piece of glass, a surgical needle or other puncture needle, and an ordinary medicine dropper, all costing less than 10 cents. The material required is one drop of a suspension of typhoid bacilli that should not cost more than half a cent ...

Effect of dilution of canine blood samples on the specificity of saline agglutination tests for immune-mediated hemolysis. [PDF]
Background Saline agglutination tests (SATs) are widely recommended for diagnosis of immune‐mediated hemolytic anemia in dogs, but there are frequent false‐positive results.

Comparison of indirect and modified agglutination tests for detection of antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in domestic cats. [PDF]
Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite with worldwide distribution. The accurate detection of this zoonotic agent in cats and other hosts has public health importance. Blood samples from 89 domestic cats were tested for antibodies to T. gondii using 2

A comparison of three column agglutination tests for red blood cell alloantibody identification. [PDF]
Objective Commercial kits of column tests for pre-transfusion testing have progressively replaced conventional tube tests in most laboratories. Aim of this study was to compare three commercial test cell panels for the identification of irregular red ...
