title: [Specificity of the antibody neutralization reaction in indicating Shigella antigens].
abstract: The specificity and sensitivity of the antibody neutralization test in the diagnosis of dysentery have been studied. This test has proved to be highly specific in experimental and clinical trials. The antibody neutralization test is more effective than the methods of the isolation of shigellae. The accuracy of this test can be increased by the elimination of different antierythrocyte agents from the secretions of persons under examination.
