[Use of acidic rose bengal antigen in the plate agglutination test for brucellosis in humans].
The results obtained in the study of the activity of an antigen stained with rose bengale in the plate agglutination test are presented. The analysis of 1309 serum samples from healthy persons and brucellosis patients has shown the high specificity and diagnostic sensitivity of the rose bengale test. The evaluation of the positive result of the rose bengale test should be differentiated in accordance with the degree of agglutination observed in the test. The correlation between the degree of agglutination with the rose bengale antigen and the titer value in Wright's test has been established. The new accelerated test is recommended for large-scale approbation in clinical conditions, epidemiological practice and in the examination of donors at blood donor centers.
