Comparison of conventional immunochromatographic assay with new automated-Treponema pallidum hemagglutination assay for screening of syphilis in blood donors

Global Journal of Transfusion Medicine, 2019
Introduction: Serological tests for syphilis contributed greatly to the detection of Treponema pallidum infection in blood donors and especially in those who were missed during the medical selection. Although several different treponemal assays have been

Contemporary Clinical Management of Otosyphilis for Practicing Otolaryngologists—A Scoping Review

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Otosyphilis has reemerged alongside increasing syphilis rates, highlighting the need for early recognition to prevent severe audiovestibular complications. A scoping review and retrospective case series indicate that most patients present with hearing loss, tinnitus, or vertigo and typically respond to penicillin‐based treatment.

A More Precise and Sensitive Hemagglutination Reduction Assay for Interferon

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1973
SummaryHA reduction assays for IF were performed using rapid (10 sec) Tween 80-ether extractions of Sindbis virus yields to greatly amplify measurable HA activity. Employing this technique a sensitive HA reduction assay for IF was developed for use in a cell system (human amnion U cells) that produced insufficient viral HA particles for measuring IF ...

Hemagglutination assays for the diagnosis and prevention of IgA anaphylactic transfusion reactions [PDF]

Blood, 1994
Abstract Passive hemagglutination assays (PHA) may be used to detect IgA antibodies to confirm clinical diagnoses of suspected IgA anaphylactic transfusion reactions. Passive hemagglutination inhibition assays (PHIA) may be used to identify IgA-deficient blood donors whose plasma- containing components are transfused to prevent ...
