    Abstract:
    A new, simplified methodology of preparation of lyophilized chrome-coated turkey blood cells (formalin-treated ) for rapid identification of tetanus antibodies in indirect hemagglutination test is described. Blood cells diagnostic preparations obtained in this way were easier and three times faster to prepare than tanned cell preparations . They maintained unchanged capability for specific agglutination during at least one year of storage when kept at 4 degrees C. proposed methodology enable to start a production of laboratory kits necessary for controlled prophylaxis of tetanus.
