[Evaluation of the usefulness of the antibody binding test for the estimation of the potency of the rabies vaccine].

Two methods of the estimation of the potency rabies vaccine were used: in vivo NIH Test and in vitro Antibody Binding Test (AB-Test). Six series of vaccines were studied, they passed NIH Test. The results of AB-test were comparable with the results of NIH Test. The AB-Test could be used instead NIH Test when the vaccine must be released in short time.
