Passive hemagglutination procedure for group A streptococcal polysaccharide.
A passive hemagglutination procedure for detection of antibody to group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus polysaccharide is described. The polysaccharide was conjugated to human gamma globulin and the complex adsorbed onto stabilized human erythrocytes. Antigen coated cells were used to measure antibody levels in normal human sera and in rabbit antisera.
