FTA-ABS test:FTA-syphilisdesigned to demonstrate the presence or absence of specific antibodies directed against the organism (Treponema pallidum) responsible for syphilis. FTA-ABS detects the majority but not all cases of the disease. It is thus a way of screening for the disease. A negativeFTA...

The FTA-200 test is a useful tool in the serodiagnosis of syphilis, although it cannot entirely replace the TPI test. Preliminary results with the FTA-ABS procedure are promising and indicate a need for additional evaluation. 展开 关键词: Humans Fluorescent Antibody Technique Syphilis Serodiagnosis...
An evaluation of the FTA-ABS test for syphilis. Seven cases are presented of late ocular and neurosyphilis in which both serum VDRL and TPI tests were nonreactive but in which serologic diagnosis was confirmed by reactive FTA-ABS tests. The clinical usefulness of the FTA-ABS test is e......
Since the reactivity found with the FTA-ABS does not indicate response to therapy, it is not suitable for monitoring treatment. The FTA-ABS test does not distinguish between syphilis and other treponematoses such as yaws, pinta and bejil. Test Resources None found for this test Please visit...
