Chronic biological false-positive reactions to serological tests for syphilis in blood donors
AUTOR(ES)
Garner, M. F.
RESUMO
Problem sera from 375 blood donors were investigated for biological false-positive reactions to serological tests for syphilis. Problem sera are those sera in which submitting laboratories have found a reactive result to a screening test for syphilis. On each serum a cardiolipin Wassermann reaction, a Venereal Disease Research Laboratory test, a Reiter protein-complement fixation test, a Treponema pallidum immobilization test, and a fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption test were performed.
