[Obtaining erythrocyte diagnosticum for the detection of chlamydial antigen]
Abstract:
It is shown possible to obtain erythrocyte diagnosticum for detection of chlamydial antigen, whose cell basis consists of a formalinized suspension of ram erythrocytes, sensibilized with hyperimmune antichlamydial sera by means of the amydol. High sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosticum, absolute correlation with the data obtained in the complex examination of patients with the urogenital tract pathology of the chlamydial etiology by other methods were determined in the course of investigation in the indirect hemagglutination test with diagnosticums of scrape specimens from these patients.
