[Results and experiences with several methods for the immunodiagnosis of amebiasis].
Results and experiences of some immunodiagnostic methods for amebiasis. Experiences concerning the laboratory diagnosis of invasive amebiasis are described and discussed. Technics used include the Passive Hemagglutination Test with E. histolytica antigen (Behring FRG) and sheep erythrocytes as carrier and the Indirect Fluorescence Antibody Reaction (IFAR) with corpuscular antigen prepared from cultures of E. histolytica strain HK 9. Comparatively for a part infected hamster liver (Dr. Richle strain) has been used as antigen. We conclude that IFAR with HK 9 antigen is more sensitive than the other tests. It has been proved useful in the diagnosis of extraintestinal amebiasis (antibody titer greater than or equal to 1:160).
