  • Title: [Experiences with the Antibody-coated Bacteria Test in the diagnosis of urinary tract infections].
    Author: Emmrich J, Tauchnitz C, Pfeiffer J.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1980 Aug 01; 35(15):Suppl 43-5. PubMed ID: 7008397.
    Abstract:
    We examined 67 cases with significant bacteriuria for the presence of antibody-loaded bacteria which shall refer to an infection of the upper urinary tract. With the help of this method we could diagnose 43 of the 45 cases with acute and chronic pyelonephritis. Three of the 22 cases with a bacteriuria of other genesis proved as falsely positive. The antibody-coated-bacteria-test should be used as diagnostic remedy in infections of the urinary tract as well as for course controls and as screening test in the clinic.
