The fluorescence-plaque test--a new sensitive technique for the detection of antigens on antibody plaque-forming cells.
A new technique is described which allows the detection of small amounts of antigen on the membrane of antibody plaque-forming cells. The test system combines the indirect immunofluorescence test and the Jerne plaque technique, and is about 10 times more sensitive than the ordinary cytotoxic plaque technique.
