title: [Comparative evaluation of the commercial Sevatest ELISA immunoenzyme set and other serological tests for detecting Toxoplasma gondii antibodies].
abstract: This work analyzes the results of 4 serologic tests used for the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis: the complement fixation (CFT), indirect immunofluorescence (IIF), passive hemagglutination (PHAT) tests, and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The last-mentioned one was made with the use of the commercial kits Sevatest ELISA IgG/Toxo Micro I. The results of ELISA were in good correlation with those yielded by the traditional tests: 70% coincidence with CFT, 80% with IIF, 84% with PHAT; besides, ELISA has shown a higher sensitivity in the screening of sera.
