[Rapid serological screening of human sera for the presence of measles virus antibodies in solid-phase immunoenzyme analysis].
A single dilution technique has been used for the determination of antimeasles antibody titer. The method involved the plotting of the calibration curve and the characterization of the serum by arbitrary "evaluation units" in comparison with the specially selected positive serum whose titer was taken to be equal to 100 "evaluation units". By means of this method 57 sera obtained from children immunized against measles and 118 sera from non-vaccinated adults aged 18-22 years were examined. The values of the calculated titers were similar to those determined experimentally. This recommends this method for seroepidemiological investigations aimed at determining the level of herd immunity to measles.
