PRINCIPLE

Febrile antigens are bacterial suspensions specially prepared for use in slide and tube agglutination procedure for detecting specifi c agglutinins implicated in certain febrile diseases such as Brucellosis and Salmonellosis. When the reagent is faced against the serum, an antigen-antibody reaction takes place being easily visualized because of the agglutination. DIAGNOSTIC USE Febrile antigens are used to detect antibodies against Salmonella, Brucella and Proteus OX-19 in patient sera. They are used for diagnostic of diseases that cause fever as for example typhoid fever (Salmonella), Malta fever (Brucellosis). Infection by these microorganisms induces humoral immunity response which produces antibodies that can be detected with the specifi c antigen. Febrile serodiagnostics tests should be used in parallel with appropriate cultural techniques for the isolation and identifi cation of the causative organism. Single test result could not be used to make a clinical diagnosis. It should integrate clinical and laboratory data
