Rapid particle agglutination test for enterotoxigenic bacteria

摘要

A rapid technique is disclosed for the identification of enteric bacteria which elaborate cholera-related heat-labile enterotoxin antigens which have the ability to cause diarrheal disease in man or animals. The invention includes a sensitized carrier particle for use as a reagent in an agglutination test for heat-labile enterotoxins and the use of said reagent in immunological determinations.
