A latex fixation test using British latex and bovine gamma globulin [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1961 A British polystyrene latex-bovine gamma globulin fixation test which can be used for serum titrations is described. It is technically easier to perform than the latex fixation test of Singer and Plotz (1956) and appears to be equally sensitive. There was agreement with a sensitized sheep cell agglutination test in 264 of 300 cases (88%).

Comparative study of test kits for measurement of rheumatoid factors by the latex fixation test. [PDF]
Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 1990 The performance of 14 test kits for the measurement of rheumatoid factors by the latex fixation test was investigated; all results were expressed in IU/ml. Reproducibility and properties of control sera were also studied. It was found that half of the kits did not satisfactorily detect rheumatoid factor levels lower than 25 IU/ml.

The Latex fixation test in the spinal fluid and urine of patients with rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Arthritis & Rheumatism, 1961 AbstractThe finding of an abnormal macroglobulin in the serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis has been isolated and characterized by several groups of investigators. A study was undertaken to study other biological fluids as to the presence of this abnormal globulin. Spinal fluids and urines were obtained from patients with arthritis.

Agglutinating Activity of the Complement Component C′1q in the F-II Latex Fixation Test [PDF]
Journal of Immunology, 1966 Native human serum treated with Na3H-ethylenediaminetetracetic acid (EDTA) exerts strong agglutinating activity in a modified F-II LP test. A study for the identification of the agglutinating principle revealed: Agglutinating activity found in 14.5% of

A COMPARISON OF THE ROSE-WAALER, LATEX FIXATION, "RA-TEST," AND BENTONITE FLOCCULATION TESTS [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1960 The bentonite flocculation test of Bozicevich, Bunim, Freund, and Ward (1958), the latex fixation test of Singer and Plotz (1956), and the “RA-test” (a latex reagent for use as a slide test) of Hyland Laboratories have been compared with each other and with a modified Rose-Waaler test, the behaviour of which has been previously extensively investigated.

BENTONITE FLOCCULATION TEST AND LATEX FIXATION TEST SLIDE METHOD
The Keio Journal of Medicine, 1961 B.F.T. and L.F.T.-S. were performed on 28 cases of R.A. Twenty four cases (85.7%) reacted positively in B.F.T. and 25 (89.4%) in L.F.T.-S. There was an agreement in 25 (89.4%) of 28 patients.In 55 cases of various diseases including collagen diseases other than R.A., 6 (11%) reacted positively in B.F.T.All cases whose B.F.T.

Heat Labile Tissue α-Globulin and Its Relationship to the Latex Fixation Test [PDF]
Journal of Immunology, 1958 Saline extracts made from placenta, liver, spleen, lung, heart muscle and kidney appear to contain varying amounts of an α-globulin which denatures at 56°C at 2 hr exposure in the presence of 0.85% NaCl to form macroscopic granules.
