Evaluation of an indirect haemagglutination kit for the rapid serological diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections

P Taylor. J Clin Pathol. 1979 Mar.

Abstract

A recently introduced indirect haemagglutination kit for the detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae antibodies is compared with the standard method complement fixation. It is concluded that the kit provides a rapid, simple, and moderately sensitive means of detecting antibodies and, in some cases, enables these to be detected in the early, acute stage of infection.
