Increased sensitivity of a new coagglutination test for rapid identification of Haemophilus influenzae type b
Abstract
A newly developed rapid coagglutination test for identifying Haemophilus influenzae type b organisms isolated from clinical specimens correlated 100% with the slide agglutination test but was 100- to 200-fold more sensitive.
