title: [Serologic-nephelometric method for the detection of allergic reactions to small-molecular drugs using polystyrene sodium particles instead of soluble polystyrene sulfonate sodium as pharmaceutic aids].
abstract: The previously developed two-step method using soluble polystyrene sulfonate-Na for the detection of allergic reactions to small molecular drugs has been replaced by a one-step method using particles of the same substance. The new method is simpler to perform. Particulate polystyrene sulfonate is commercially available. The drug is added in increasing concentrations to diluted serum samples and the light scattering is measured with a highly sensitive nephelometer. Both the specific serum factor in the patient's serum (globulins) and the non-specific factor contained in most fresh human sera are particularly labile.
