  • Title: Evaluation of a latex agglutination test for detection of antibodies to rubella virus in selected sera.
    Author: Freeman S, Clark L, Dumas N.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1983 Jul; 18(1):197-8. PubMed ID: 6885988.
    Abstract:
    A new latex agglutination test for rubella virus was used to test sera with a hemagglutination inhibition titer of less than or equal to 8 (97 specimens) or greater than or equal to 256 (158 specimens). Maximum latex agglutination test sensitivity was achieved when low-titer sera were tested undiluted and high-titer sera were diluted (1:10). A modification of the protocol of the manufacturer resulted in a latex agglutination-hemagglutination inhibition agreement of 96.7%.
