[Erythrocytic diagnostic agents for determining antibodies to Proteus O antigens].
Highly sensitive and specific erythrocyte diagnostic agents (ED) for the determination of antibodies to Proteus O-antigens have been obtained by the sensitization of formolated sheep red blood cells (SPBC) with activated lipopolysaccharides (LPS) without the use of mediators. The tannin treatment of formolated SRBC and/or the increase of temperature from 45 degrees C to 100 degrees C in the process of the preparation of ED have been found to produce no increase in effectiveness. Antibody ED permitting the detection of Proteus O- and H-antigens has been obtained by the sensitization of formolated chick red blood cells with immunoglobulin preparations to Proteus hydroxylamine antigens, carried out with the use of amidol. The experiments have shown the possibility of using this antibody ED for the determination of O-antibodies in the antigen neutralization test with nonactivated LPS used as an agglutinating agent. The passive hemagglutination test with antibody ED has proved to be a more sensitive method for the detection of O-antibodies than the antigen neutralization test with antigenic ED. The determination of Proteus etiology in the passive hemagglutination test with the use of antigenic ED has been shown to be highly effective in the examination of patients with chronic osteomyelitis at the stage of exacerbation.
