  • Title: [Diagnostic value of antibody-coated bacteria in urine sediment (author's transl)].
    Author: Fadda G, Allevato F, Ronzoni M.
    Journal: Quad Sclavo Diagn; 1976 Dec; 12(4):485-92. PubMed ID: 800670.
    Abstract:
    An immunofluorescence test for detection of antibody-coated bacteria in urinary sediments of patients with significant bacteriuria was carried out. According to previous data antibody-coated bacteria were not observed in urines from patients with cystitis, while they were observed in urine specimens from patients with pyelonephritis. These results confirm that the immunofluorescence test can be useful in distinguishing infection of kidney from infection of the bladder.
