The diagnostic value of an immunodiffusion (ID) test with standardized precipitinogens
derived from five Aspergillus species was determined with sera from 60 proven and 12 …

The complement fixation test was found to be both sensitive and specific for detecting
antibodies to Aspergillus fumigatus. Sera from active cases of histoplasmosis …

A total of 21 cases of granuloma caused by Aspergillus species were encountered during
the period 1972–79. The organs involved were nasal and paranasal sinuses, brain, orbit …

Immunoblots of extracts from kidneys of mice infected intravenously with Aspergillus
fumigatus were probed with human sera from patients with aspergilloma. A limited number …

The sera of healthy women and of adult men either with chest disease or some other
condition associated with a mycosis have been tested for precipitins against Aspergillus …

To improve anternortem diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, we used a
radioimmunoassay to detect an Aspergillus fumigatus antigen in bronchoalveolar lavage …

Aspergillus antigenemia was followed up in 215 consecutively observed bone marrow
transplant (BMT) patients over a period of two years, using both a latex agglutination test …

Diffuse fluorescence in an indirect fluorescent-antibody test for antibody to Aspergillus
fumigatus was eliminated by using germlings, rather than hyphae, as antigen. The modified …

In recent years there has been some progress in diagnosing invasive aspergillosis at an
early stage of disease. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays are more sensitive than …

The effect of culture media, temperature of incubation, and continuous shaking of cultures,
on the reactivity and yield of antigens of Aspergillus fumigatus were evaluated. It was found …
