Indirect hemagglutination test for detection of antibodies to Cytomegalovirus

M T Bernstein et al. Appl Microbiol. 1971 Jan.

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.
