Title: An evaluation of the Monosticon rapid slide test diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis. Author: Scott GL, Priest CJ. Journal: J Clin Pathol; 1972 Sep; 25(9):783-5. PubMed ID: 4678188. Abstract: A new rapid slide test for the detection of infectious mononucleosis heterophile antibody has been compared with the Paul-Bunnell absorption test. Out of 200 sera, 46 were seropositive for infectious mononucleosis by the Paul-Bunnell test and 43 of these were detected by the Monosticon test; the three Monosticon-negative sera were of low titre. There was no problem with false positive reactions due to heterophile antibody not specific for infectious mononucleosis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
