It is technically impractical for many clinical laboratories to use the direct immunofluorescence assay for identifying and serogrouping clinical isolates of Legionella. We compared the results obtained with the direct immunofluorescence assay with the results of a simple and less-demanding slide agglutination test for identifying 15 serogroups ...

We previously standardized the direct agglutination test (DAT) to detect anti-Leishmania chagasi promastigote antibodies (DAT-LPC) with good sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing visceral leishmaniasis (VL). In this paper, we present a technical upgrade by introducing some modifications into the antigen preparation.

Validation of a direct agglutination test prototype kit for the diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2013A freeze-dried antigen was developed with Leishmania (L.) infantum and used for the production of a prototype direct agglutination test kit for the laboratory diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), called DAT-LPC. On this study the diagnosis validity of this prototype was performed.To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity 103 samples from ...

Spontaneous agglutination of red cells with a positive direct antiglobulin test in various media
Transfusion, 1984Red cells from 475 individuals (donors and patients) with a positive direct antiglobulin test (DAT) (66% were 1/2+ to 1+, 19% were 1 1/2+ to 2+, and 15% were 2 1/2+ or greater) were examined for spontaneous agglutination following incubation in various media.

The present study was designed to evaluate the efficiency of two serodiagnostic tests; the direct agglutination test (DAT) and the fast agglutination screening test (FAST) in the diagnosis of Microsporidia in experimentally infected mice and to differentiate between different species of the parasite. The swiss albino mice were divided into non infected

[A rapid direct latex agglutination test for HCG (author's transl)].
Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 1976792 urine samples from pregnant patients were investigated by a direct latex agglutination test (LA). Results of this slide test were compared with data derived from a haemagglutination inhibition test (HI). The same results were obtained by both pregnancy tests in 768 (96.7%) out of 792 urine samples. The pregnancy test was negative in 20 cases (2.5%)

Leishmania aethiopica (L.a.) is the main species of Leishmania that causes Ethiopian cutaneous leishmaniasis (ECL). The routine diagnosis of ECL depends on parasitological examination of smear, culture or biopsy. In this study, DAT was set-up and evaluated for its diagnostic performance using defined sera of 45 ECL patients, 18 visceral leishmaniasis ...

Veterinary Parasitology, 1993
A direct agglutination test is described to diagnose 'Mal de Caderas' caused by Trypanosoma evansi. The antigen used was a suspension of trypsin-treated parasites stabilized with formalin. The test was evaluated in horses with both natural and experimental infections. Test sensitivity and specificity were 94 and 97%, respectively.
