Practical considerations in the laboratory diagnosis of bacterial enteric infections.

abstract：:We studied whether laboratory confirmation of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) can be improved after antigen clearance by determining free antibody and combining the results of an antigenic and a biologic assay. Blood samples taken over 40 days in 14 patients with HIT with thromboembolism underwent fluorescence-...
