The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of colloidal gold probes widely used in histochemistry and electronic microscopy for the serologic diagnosis of syphilis.
One hundred eighty-nine sera which had been submitted to the traditional fluorescent trigenemic absorption (FTA-ABS) test and had later been tested with the new colloidal gold probe method (IAT-ABS).
Out of a total of 103 positive samples by FTA-ABS all were positive when tested by gold immunoprobes (sensitivity 100%). Eighty-six samples which were negative by immunofluorescence were all negative by IAT-ABS (specificity 100%).
The new method of colloidal gold probes with the current microscopy is useful for confirming serologic diagnosis of syphilis.
本研究的目的是评估广泛应用于组织化学和电子显微镜的胶体金探针在梅毒血清学诊断中的效用。
189份血清样本先进行传统的荧光螺旋体抗体吸收试验(FTA-ABS),随后再用新的胶体金探针法(IAT-ABS)检测。
FTA-ABS检测的103份阳性样本,用金免疫探针检测时全部为阳性(敏感性100%)。免疫荧光检测为阴性的86份样本,IAT-ABS检测也全部为阴性(特异性100%)。
结合当前显微镜技术的新型胶体金探针法有助于确诊梅毒的血清学诊断。
