抄録

We suggested in our previous report that the complement binding reaction was not available method for diagnosis, moreover, this reaction gave unsatisfactory specificity for lepra nervosa.
In this report we have described about agglutination with new antigen which was composed of 0.1% cardiolipin 0, 05, 1% cephalin 0.15 (ratio 1: 30) and 1% kaolin. The results of this method showed higher specificity in lepra nervosa.
