Abstract

A slide latex test for detection of anti-zona pellucida activity in human sera was developed using a latex agglutination reaction. The latex reagent, made of polystyrene particles coated with solubilizing zona antigen(s), was found to give results comparable in sensitivity as well as specificity to those of the indirect immunofluorescence method as tested with anti-pig-zona antiserum and with human sera. Thus, the slide latex test was judged to be adequate for use instead of the indirect immunofluorescence technique.
