Box plots show that when IFA titer increases, COBAS-ANA value does Discussion We evaluated -precision, response to ANA specificities, interferences and clinical sample studies- in comparison to conventional IFA-ANA testing of the COBAS Core HEp-2 ANA-EIA. In the precision study COBAS-ANA ...
Diagnosis of granulocytic anaplasmosis can be accomplished with acute and convalescent serology. Many veterinary laboratories perform serologic testing using immunofluorescent antibody (IFA) techniques. IgG antibodies are first detectable approximately 8 days after exposure, 2 to 5 days afte...
However, only 12.3% of them had a titer ≥1/320. The sensitivity of the ANA in patients with SLE as assessed by IFA was more than 98%. Nuclear membrane and DFS70 patterns are not specific to any connective tissue disease and they can be detected positive in rheumatoid arthritis and in ...

Patients withAnaplasmahave relatively low IFA titer at the beginning of symptom onset, so PCR tests could be used for early diagnosis. Moreover, a diagnosis of anaplasmosis cannot be excluded based on the absence of morulae in blood smears. ...
Serological and Molecular Diagnosis Anaplasma phagocytophilum IgG seroconversions were detected for all 9 patients, and a 4-fold IgG titer increase was observed in 7 of 9 patients (Table 1). Nested PCR using genus-common rrs and species-specific rrs and groEL primers identified A phagocytophilum ...

The objective of this study was to compare the determination of ANA titer using the PolyTiter system to that of the conventional serial dilution method. A total of 172 consecutive ANA-IFA positive serum specimens, including the four most common pattern types, were evaluated in parallel by two ...
