RAPID PLASMA REAGIN (RPR) TEST RPR is use in the non-treponemal flocculation test for the qualitative and semiquantitative determination of regain antibodies in serum or plasma Materials: RPR Antigen: Suspension of carbon approximately 0.2 g/L, 0.003% Cardiolipin, 0.02% Lecithin and 0.09% Cholesterol. Positive Control: Serum containing antibodies against Treponema pallidum. Negative Control: Serum free of antibodies against Treponema pallidum. Stirrers Disposable test slides Micropipettes capable of dispensing 50 ul and 16 ul Disposable serum pipets Test tubes Test cards Rotator (set at 100 rpm) Isotonic saline: 0.9% NaCl Principle: RPR is a modified form of VDRL Antigen which contains carbon particles to improve the visual reading of the result. When binding occurs between cholesterol / cardiolipin / lecithin in the reagent and the reagin antibodies in the sample, the results can be seen macroscopically in…

When a patient exhibits a four-fold or greater rise in antibody titer against a specific microbial antigen between acute-phase and convalescent-phase serum samples, this is considered to be a “seroconversion”. Which of the following would be a correct interpretation of a seroconversion? what option below is the answer? None of the other four answers are a correct interpretation of a seroconversion These results show that the microbe itself has been detected in the patient’s sample(s) These findings cannot be interpreted because antibodies aren’t specific enough for antigens There is no evidence of current active infection because that would require that the antibody titer is decreasing rather than increasing The results show evidence of current or recent infection by the specific microbe because there has been an active immunologic response to its antigen
