INSTANT DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUE FOR ENTEROVIRUS ANTIGENS IN CEREBROSPINAL FLUID Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G01N33/487 G01N33/53 C12N5/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: instant diagnostic technique for enterovirus antigens in cerebrospinal fluid by detecting the antigens in a biological material by conducting modified complement binding; the biological material is cerebrospinal fluid added with hemolytic serum; then the analysed samples are settled under certain conditions; that is followed by quantitative measurement of oxidase enzymes by tetramethylbenzidine; and in the presence of the antigen in the analysed material, enteroviral infection is diagnosed.

EFFECT: technique enables higher diagnostic accuracy in the enterovirus antigens in cerebrospinal fluid that enables the further prediction both of the clinical course, and of the clinical outcome.
