Abstract

ABSTRACT An in-house immunochromatographic test, Plague BioThreat Alert test strips, ABICAP columns, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, flow cytometry, and immunofluorescence microscopy were compared for the detection of the fraction 1 capsular antigen of Yersinia pestis , using spiked buffer and clinical specimens. Hand-held test kits proved to be excellent benchtop tools.
