TYPING GROUP A HEMOLYTIC STREPTOCOCCI BY M PRECIPITIN REACTIONS IN CAPILLARY PIPETTES

A method is described for performing type-specific anti-M precipitintests on group A hemolytic streptococci in 1 mm. capillary pipettes.These tests require so much less precipitating serum than wasformerly used that the method now seems to be practical.
