Comparison of fat agglutination slide test and latex test for C-reactive protein. 1987

G Hulman, and M Fuller

A slide test for detecting elevated levels of serum CRP using Intralipid and calcium chloride is described. The test obtains results similar to those of a latex agglutination test with which it was compared. The test is extremely quick and easy to perform. It may be of use as a cheap alternative to latex agglutination as a rapid screening or bedside test for elevated levels of CRP.
