[Examinations of the behaviour of immunoglobulins IgG, IgA, IgM in comparison to the immunoserological reactions in human chronic brucellosis (author's transl)]. / Untersuchunger der Immunoglobuline IgG, IgA und IgM im Vergleich zu immunserologischen Reaktionen bei der menschlichen, chronischen Brucellose

The authors determined the levels of the immunoglobulins IgG, IgA and IgM in the serum of 70 patients with chronical brucellosis which was diagnosed on the basis of epidemiological, clinical and laboratory examinations. The Ig-levels were compared with immunoserological reactions of brucellosis as Wright, Coombs, Burnet, complement fixation tests. A significant increase of immunoglobulin G without a positive correlation with the values of immunoserological reactions was found.
