  • Title: [Serology of Mediterranean boutonneuse fever. Kinetics of antibodies detected by 3 methods: indirect immunofluorescence, indirect hemagglutination and latex agglutination].
    Author: Raoult D, Hechemy KE, Chaudet H.
    Journal: Pathol Biol (Paris); 1985 Oct; 33(8):839-41. PubMed ID: 3903623.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this work was to determine the kinetics of antibodies in mediterranean spotted fever as determined by three serologic methods: indirect fluorescent antibody test, latex agglutination test and indirect hemagglutination test. No difference was noticed in the early kinetics but after 6 months, the latex agglutination test and the indirect hemagglutination test did not detect antibodies but the indirect fluorescent antibody test was still positive. This reaction is convenient for seroepidemiologic studies.
