The anti-alpha-haemolysin test is widely used in the diagnosis of staphylococcal osteomyelitis. An additional test would be welcomed because raised antibodies to this antigen are not seen in all proven cases. This communication reports that anti-gamma-lysin was present in the serum of most of the 19 patients with proven staphylococcal osteomyelitis studied here. In two cases followed up after chemotherapy was initiated both tests indicated the satisfactory progress of the patient.
抗α-溶血素试验广泛用于葡萄球菌性骨髓炎的诊断。由于并非所有确诊病例都出现针对该抗原的抗体升高，因此额外的检测将是受欢迎的。本通讯报道，在此研究的19例确诊葡萄球菌性骨髓炎患者中，大多数患者血清中存在抗γ-溶血素。在开始化疗后随访的2例患者中，两项检测均表明患者病情进展良好。
