[Possibility of the serological differential diagnosis of human brucellosis and yersiniasis]. 1983

M M Zheludkov, and V I Dunaev

The results of the examination of patients with brucellosis and yersiniosis (serotype 0-9) are presented. The possibility of making, in principle, the differential serological diagnosis of brucellosis and yersiniosis in the agglutination test with the use of Yersinia OH-antigen has been established.
