title: Use of a new buffer system with formalinized sheep erythrocytes in the rubella hemagglutination-inhibition test.
abstract: The increased sensitivity and improved agglutination and settling patterns of formalinized sheep erythrocytes in a new buffer, HEPES (N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine N'-2'-ethanesulfonic acid), make this system more suitable for use in the rubella hemagglutination-inhibition test.
