Effect of temperature of the sensitization process on the passive hemagglutination test for hepatitis B antibody

Effect of temperature of the sensitization process on the passive hemagglutination test for hepatitis B antibody

R A Hawkes. Appl Microbiol. 1973 Sep.

Abstract

The temperature at which the coupling of antigen to erythrocytes takes place is an important factor in the passive hemagglutination test for hepatitis B antibody. Erythrocytes sensitized at 16 C are much less sensitive for the detection of antibody than are those sensitized at 22 to 41 C.
