Abstract
Two haemagglutination tests using preserved turkey erythrocytes are described for the detection of thyroglobulin and microsomal antibodies, respectively. Comparative studies with the more traditional sheep cell techniques show good correlation of titres when testing sera from patients with autoimmune thyroid disorders.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
