BACTERIOLOGICAL, IMMUNOLOGICAL AND VIRAL STUDIES ON RECTAL MUCUS IN ENTERIC INFECTIONS (SHIGELLOSIS, SALMONELLOSIS, PATHOGENIC COLI INFECTIONS AND VIRAL ENTERIC INFECTIONS)

Abstract

Comparative studies of the agglutination, the hem-agglutination and the Latex agglutination on sera and mucus of Shigella flexneri 2a infected cases were performed. The Latex agglutination gave higher agglutinin titers than the agglutinin titers and the Latex titers were similar to the hem-agglutinin titers. Comparison of the agglutination and the Latex agglutination in typhoid fever patients sera showed that the Latex titers were higher than the agglutinin titers. Serological research of a Salmonella enteritidis infected case clarified that the Latex titer was higher than the agglutinin titer and similar to the hem-agglutinin titer. In this case mucus titer was low in three seroreactions.
