A method is described for the detection of immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii by using latex particles coated with antigens of the organism. An excellent qualitative agreement was noted when the latex method was compared with other tests for the detection of IgM toxoplasma antibodies. The method is simple and inexpensive to perform and does not require the use of whole killed organisms or an enzyme conjugate.
描述了一种通过使用包被该生物体抗原的乳胶颗粒来检测抗弓形虫免疫球蛋白M(IgM)抗体的方法。当将乳胶法与检测IgM弓形虫抗体的其他试验进行比较时,发现二者在定性方面具有极佳的一致性。该方法操作简单且成本低廉,不需要使用全灭活生物体或酶结合物。
