Description

Use Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Brucella abortus Agglutinating Sera as control antisera in a standard Widal test for epidemiological and diagnostics purposes. Serological tests are based on the fact that antibodies produced in the serum in response to exposure to bacterial antigens will visibly agglutinate with bacteria carrying homologous antigens. Brucella Agglutinating Sera is used as a control to check for satisfactory performance.

Surface antigens of Brucella have two specificities termed A and M. Most Brucella abortus and Brucella suis strains have a high ratio of A antigens to M antigens whereas the reverse is true for Brucella melitensis^1,2. The antisera are prepared using representative smooth strains of Brucella abortus and used as control antisera.

• Ready to use - Prepared reagents
