  • Title: Reactivity of microhemagglutination, fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption, and venereal disease research laboratory tests in primary syphilis.
    Author: Dyckman JD, Storms S, Huber TW.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1980 Oct; 12(4):629-30. PubMed ID: 6999029.
    Abstract:
    Seroreactivity in 130 cases of primary syphilis was 91.5% by fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption test, 82.3% by microhemagglutination (MHA-TP test), and 68.5% by the Venereal Disease Reseach Laboratory (VDRL) test. The MHA TP test generally became reactive earlier than the VDRL test and confirmed all reactive and most weakly reactive VDRL results.
