Rapid stick test for detecion of antibodies in a specimen.

摘要

A method for the detection of the presence of anti-viral or anti-bacterial antibodies in a specimen and a kit for the same. The method comprises the use of a solid phase support dipstick having attached thereto suitable antigen-binding material to which viral antigens or bacterial antigens are bound. The antibodies specific for the bound antigens bind to the antigen and a second-antibody labelled with a means for visually detecting those antibodies which have formed immunocomplexes with the bound antigen when in the presence of suitable reactive agents and a test kit for the same.
