Diagnostic laboratory test C. Serology
• IgG agglutinin titers above 1:80 indicateactive infection.
• If negative, presence of “blockingantibodies”
Agglutinationtest
• IgA antibodies that interfere with agglutination by IgGand IgM, cause a serologic test to be negative.Blocking
antibodies
• IgG, IgA & IgM may be detected.
• Use of cytoplasmic protein as antigen
• More sensitive and specific than agglutination testELISA Assays
