Indirect hemagglutination test for detection of antibodies to Cytomegalovirus
Abstract
An indirect hemagglutination test has been adapted for use with cytomegalovirus. The test is highly sensitive and reproducible. Both immunoglobulin M and immunoglobulin G antibodies can be detected by this method. The hemagglutination reaction can be inhibited by small amounts of homologous antigen. This principle permits early identification of virus isolated from diagnostic specimens.
