immunodiagnosis of parasitic zoonoses: comparative efficacy of three immunofluorescence tests using antigens purified by affinity chromatography. | three immunofluorescent antibody assays were developed during this study: the direct (dfat) and indirect (ifat) fluorescent antibody tests using frozen worm sections, and the cyanogen bromide indirect fluorescent antibody test (cnbr-ifat) using helminth antigens purified by affinity chromatography bound on to commercially prepared cnbr-sepharose 4b beads. purified antigens used in the cnbr-ifat gave greater specificity and sensitivity than either the dfat or ifat. dirofilaria immitis, toxocara c ... | 1978 | 354114 |
