Comparison of the complement fixation test and counterelectrophoresis test for the detection of antibodies in Chagas disease.

R A Knight, H Rocha and D Kaye

ABSTRACT

Sera from 452 patients and blood donors were tested for antibodies to Tryp-anosoma cruzi. The complement fixation test and a counterelectrophoresis test were used. The results showed that both tests agreed in 92% of the sera. However, the counterelectrophoresis test was not as sensitive as the complement fixation test.
