[Application of enzyme linked immuno-electrophoresis for the diagnosis of tuberculosis].
The technique of Enzyme linked immuno-electrophoresis (ELIEP) was established to detect the specific antibody against tubercle bacilli. The results of 730 cases showed that the sensitivity of this method is 97.33%, and the specificity, 97.5%. Thus this method is more sensitive than the ELISA methods which had bean published. The manipulation of ELIEP is simple, convenient, and fast, reagent stable. This method may be used in diagnosis of tuberculosis with reliability and efficiency.
