Comparison of the reliability and sensitivity of three serological procedures in detecting antibody to Yersinia pestis (Pasteurella pestis).

J D Marshall, J A Mangiafico, D C Cavanaugh.   

Abstract

Three serological procedures, the agar-gel precipitin inhibition, the complement fixation, and the indirect hemagglutination tests, were used to detect and measure antibody to Yersinia pestis in the sera from 383 individuals. Although all three tests were useful in detecting plague antibody, the most reliable and sensitive test procedure was indirect hemagglutination.
