Abstract
Automated tests to evaluate the antibody titer of a sample by incubating a test sample, bacteria, and complement, and detecting bacterial growth in the incubated mixture, and to identify bacteria and its titer in a sample by incubating a test sample, bacterial antiserum, and complement, and detecting inhibition of bacterial growth in the incubated mixture. The automated tests lend themselves to diagnostic use and may be provided in the form of diagnostic test kits.
