title: [An indirect solid-phase immunoenzyme method in diagnosing rickettsial infections].
abstract: Sera of Brill-Zinsser disease patients (70 samples) Q fever patients (12 samples) and healthy persons from Q fever enzootic areas (99 samples) were studied in indirect solid phase enzyme immunoassay (ELISA), indirect immunofluorescent antibody test (IFA) and indirect passive hemahglutination test. ELISA and IFA have been proved as most sensitive tests for detection of rickettsial antibodies in both clinical and retrospective diagnosis of Rickettsial diseases.
