Abstract:
Two semi-quantitative methods--a latex kit and a precipitin test--and a quantitative turbidometric technique were compared to determine the concentration of C reactive protein in serum. Neither of the semi-quantitative tests was found superior in respect of performance or rapidity to the turbidometric method. The cost of capital equipment needed for the latter is high, but it may also be used for a range of other rapid quantitative determinations.
