title: [A stat-method of determining respiratory syncytial virus].
abstract: For rapid detection of RS virus we have modified agglutination test with staphylococcus coated with RSV-antibody which allows the virus titer to be determined within 3-5 min. The results of RS virus titration in the yield compared with those obtained by CFT and CPE tests showed our modified test to be twice as specific and sensitive (60-80 ng/ml). This modification of the coagglutination test with sensitized staphylococcus and the method of running the test on a row of slides may be used in virological and serological laboratories as well as in infectious hospitals and outpatient wards.
