False-positive cryptococcal antigen latex agglutination caused by disinfectants and soaps.

L B Blevins1, J Fenn, H Segal, P Newcomb-Gayman, K C Carroll.   

Abstract

Five disinfectants or soaps were tested to determine if any could be responsible for false-positive results obtained with the Latex-Crypto Antigen Detection System kit (Immuno-Mycologics, Inc., Norman, Okla.). Three disinfectants or soaps (Derma soap, 7X, and Bacdown) produced false-positive agglutination after repeated washing of ring slides during testing of a known negative cerebrospinal fluid specimen.
