title: Qualitative screening of C-reactive protein by latex in microtiter trays.
abstract: A microtiter-latex anti-C reactive protein method is described for screening large number of samples. The high percentage of false positives found with the slide-latex anti-C reactive protein method was reduced about 6 fold by the use of the described method. The use of microtiter trays, dilution of serum in one step and decreasing time of assay make this method simple, specific, rapid and easy to perform without sophisticated equipment.
