title: [Evaluation of the gel diffusion technique in the diagnosis of the amoebiasis (author's transl)].
abstract: Amoebic gel diffusion precipitin test has tried in comparison with fluorescent antibody test on sera from clinical amoebiasis cases and on 50 normal control sera. Ultimately the use of both tests is recommended as the latter resulted more specific while the positivity of the gel diffusion test appeared strictly correlated with acute infections.
