Q

In serum sickness, ________ can be used as control to evaluate and validate the reagent used.

A

Antibodies

22
Q

What is the Principle of Paul Bennet Test?

A

Hemagglutination

23
Q

Presumptive test for the presence for
heterophile antibodies

A

Paul Bennet Test

24
Q

Detects the antibodies of infectious
mononucleosis, Forssman, and serum sickness

A

Paul Bennet Test

25
Paul Bennet test can identify the specific nature of the heterophil antibody. True or False
False Cannot identify the specific nature of the heterophil antibody and Can only tell if heterophil antibodies are present
26
Paul bennet test is incapable of determining specificity and is only indicative of the presence or absence of heterophil True or False
True
27
Reagent Antigen in Paul Bennet Test
2% suspension of sheep rbcs
28
Antibody used in Paul Bennet test
Heterophil Abs in patient’s serum
29
(+) in Paul bennet test means
there is hemmagglutination and presence of heterophil antibodies
30
Principle of Davidson Differential test
Absorption hemagglutination
31
What are the Two steps in Davidson Differential Test?
A. Absorption B. Hemagglutination
32
Exposure of test serum to both beef cells and guinea pig cell which causes absorption of either one or both of these antibodies
Absorption
33
Antigen in Davidson Differential Test
guinea pig kidney and beef rbcs
34
Antibodies in Davidson Differential Test
heterophil abs in patient’s serum
35
Indicator cells in Davidson Differential Test
Sheep RBCs
36
The “Absorbed Agglutinins” (precipitates) are removed by centrifugation and the resultant fluid (supernatant) are then tested with Sheep RBC
Hemagglutination
37
If the tube in Davidson is positive for absorption -> Antibody titer will _________ -> Agglutination ___________
decrease, weakens
38
If the tube in Davidson is negative for absorption -> antibody titer will _________ -> agglutination is ____________
increase, strong
39
ABSORPTION PATTERN Hetero Abs Beef RBCS GPKC Forssman _______. ________ IM ________. ________ Serum sickness ________ ________
ABSORPTION PATTERN Hetero Abs Beef RBCS GPKC Forssman No Yes IM Yes no Serum Sickness. Yes Yes
40
AGGLUTINATION PATTERN Hetero Abs. Beef RBCS GPKC Forssman. _________ ______ IM _________ ______ Serum Sickness _______. _____
AGGLUTINATION PATTERN Hetero Abs. Beef RBCS. GPKC Forssman ++++ + IM + ++++ Serum Sickness ++ ++
41
Principle of Monospot
Absorption Hemagglutination
42
Antigen in Monospot
Guinea pig kidney cells and Beef RBCS
43
Antibody in Monospot
Heterophil Abs in patient’s serum
44
Indicator cell in Monospot
Horse Cells
45
When Papain is added to sheep cells in Monospot, the receptors for the Abs are specifically _____________.
Inactivated
46
Used to differentiate a sheep rbc that are native and those that Papain Treated
Rapid Differential Slide Test Using Papain-treated Sheep RBCs
47
Principle of Rapid Differential Slide Test Using Papain-treated Sheep RBCs
Hemagglutination
48
Is there an agglutination in normal serum and IM serum when Native Sheep RBC is used?
Yes
49
Is there an agglutination in Serum sickness and other heterophil abs when Native Sheep RBC is used?
Yes
50
Is there an agglutination in Serum sickness and other heterophil abs when Papain-treated Sheep RBC is used?
yes
51
Is there an agglutination in normal serum and IM serum when Papain-treated Sheep RBC is used?
None or weak agglutination
