Evaluation of the quality of the reagents employed in the counterimmunoelectrophoresis technique for the determination of rabies antibodies
Keywords:
Rabia, Serología, ContrainmunoelectroforesisAbstract
This study demonstrated that the antigens and indicator sera produced by the Butantan Institute may be employed with success in the counterimmunoelectrophoresis technique for the titration of rabies antibodies in sera from immunized individuals. No statistically significant differences were demonstrated between the results obtained in the standardization tests carried out at the Butantan Institute and the reference control tests performed at the Pan American Zoonoses Center. It is proposed that the Butantan Institute be in charge of the production and distribution of these reagents at the national level.Downloads
