Using 85 sera collected from horses that had been experimentally infected with equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) and 200 field sera collected from racehorses in Japan, we compared 4 agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) kits for serologic detection of EIAV antibodies from Idexx, VMRD, IDvet, and the National Engineering Research Center of Veterinary Biologics, China (NECVB).

Antibodies4
Immunodiffusion (ID) for the detection of IgG and IgM specific antibodies is a preferred test for detection of exposure to C. immitis , with high specificity. (ucdavis.edu)
Of the five approaches, the assays that provide the most rapid diagnosis, specifically the detection of antibodies by rapid serologic methods, and specific detection of cellular components, including antigens, enzymes, or nucleic acid sequences (especially with amplification), have gained the most acceptance.

Serologic test-immunodiffusion test: A rise in complement fixation titers in paired sera may occur early in acute infection and is suggestive evidence of active disease. (cdc.gov)
Specific confirmation can be obtained by demonstrating echinococcal antigens by immunodiffusion (arc 5) procedures or immunoblot assays (8-, 21 -kD bands). (cdc.gov)
Comparing a patient's titers with both purified-specific and shared antigens permits the serologic discrimination between patients infected with E. multilocularis and those infected with E. granulosus . (cdc.gov)
The appearance of immunoglobulin M (IgM) or precipitin antibody against Coccidioides is the most sensitive serologic indication of early infection. (medscape.com)

Confirmatory1
Any positive serologic test considered confirmatory. (cdc.gov)
Tests4
Control is based on elimination or isolation of infected dogs identified by positive cultural or serologic tests at monthly intervals. (msdvetmanual.com)
[6] Serologic tests are especially useful for organisms that are difficult to culture by routine laboratory methods, like Treponema pallidum (the causative agent of syphilis ), or viruses . (darmstadtium448.sbs)
Other serologic methods used in transfusion medicine include crossmatching and the direct and indirect antiglobulin tests . (darmstadtium448.sbs)
Antibody1
Serologic testing is readily available and diagnostic once significant antibody titres develop, at greater than 8 weeks post-infection. (dvm360.com)
Test1
The most widely used serologic test is an agglutination test by a tube or slide method. (msdvetmanual.com)
Assays1
Serologic assays are less reliable in immunosuppressed patients with 20-50% of patients testing negative with these methods. (ucdavis.edu)
In forms of disease with a more benign clinical course, such as patients with isolated pulmonary nodules confirmed by culture or histopathology, serologic testing may often be negative. (ucdavis.edu)
Visible1
Pruebas serológicas en las que la reacción positiva se manifiesta por una PRECIPITACIÓN QUÍMICA visible y tiene lugar cuando un ANTÍGENO soluble reacciona con sus precipitinas, es decir, con ANTICUERPOS que pueden formar un precipitado. (bvsalud.org)
We defined a case by positive immunodiffusionserology, a ≥ 4-fold titer rise in complement fixation between acute and convalescent sera, or positive urinary Histoplasma capsulatum (HC) antigen. (nih.gov)

Two newborn domestic sheep were fed the ground intestinal tissue containing acid-fast bacteria and the progression of the experimental disease was followed by fecal culture, immunodiffusion (AGID) and lymphocyte stimulation (LST) tests. (bioone.org)
Infection2
Serologic testing is not available in the United States (or outside endemic areas) and may be negative in patients infected with P lutzii infection. (medscape.com)
Serologic testing for blastomycosis should be requested when a patient shows signs of a respiratory infection that progresses gradually, with fever, weight loss, cough with sputum, chest pain, and night sweats. (bmgrp.eu)
Species1
Wound aspirates, blister fluids, sera, and urine samples from patients with snake bite were examined for the presence of species-specific venoms using immunodiffusion. (ox.ac.uk)
