ABSTRACT
Staphylococcal clumping test was established using a coagulase positive strain of staphylococci. 10 mg/ml of bacterial cell suspension was used as the optimum concentration for detecting 2 ug/ml of fibrinogen reference solution. The sensitivity of our method is of 2 ug/ml of fibrinogen. Using the staphylococcal clumping test, 150 samples of healthy blood donors were tested. The normal fibrin(-ogen) degradation product levels of Myanmar ranged from zero to 10 ug/ml. The results obtained from the staphylococcal clumping test were comparable to those obtained from Thrombo-Welllco latex agglutination test (Wellcome Divagnostics).
