Vaginal washings from 118 women were investigated by means of immunofluorescence for the presence of antibodies against Candida albicans. A significantly (p less than 0.02) higher antibody titer was found in the samples from patients with clinically evident vulvovaginal candidiasis. Vaginal secretions from those patients with a positive culture for C. albicans were assayed by means of Western blotting. A distinct band pattern was found in the group of patients with a positive culture and the classical clinical picture of C. albicans vulvovaginitis.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
