The Toxi-titer microtiter plate system (Bartels Immunodiagnostic Supplies, Inc., Bellevue, Wash.) is a simplified procedure for detecting the cytotoxin produced by Clostridium difficile in stool filtrates. In a parallel study of 74 stool specimens, results from the Toxin-titer system compared favorably with those from the conventional system. Our experience with the Toxin-titer system in testing 540 stool specimens was, in general, satisfactory, although a few problems with toxin control did occur. The method requires no specialized experience in tissue culture techniques and can therefore be adopted for routine use in clinical laboratories.
Toxi-titer微量滴定板系统(巴特尔免疫诊断用品公司,华盛顿州贝尔维尤)是一种用于检测艰难梭菌在粪便滤液中产生的细胞毒素的简化程序。在一项对74份粪便标本的平行研究中,Toxin-titer系统的结果与传统系统的结果相比具有优势。我们使用Toxin-titer系统检测540份粪便标本的经验总体上是令人满意的,尽管在毒素控制方面确实出现了一些问题。该方法不需要组织培养技术方面的专业经验,因此可用于临床实验室的常规检测。
