Study of Tubex as a Rapid Diagnostic Test of Typhoid Fever

The book "Study of Tubex as a Rapid Diagnostic Test of Typhoid Fever" offers a comprehensive analysis of the effectiveness of the TUBEX test for the rapid diagnosis of typhoid. It examines serological tests that detect IgM or IgG antibodies against various purified antigens of Salmonella Typhi. The study is based on the evaluation of 44 patients who met the WHO criteria for typhoid and compares the results of the TUBEX test with the traditional Widal test and blood culture as the gold standard. The results indicate that the TUBEX test is superior in terms of specificity and has slightly higher sensitivity compared to blood culture. This specialized book is aimed at professionals in the fields of medicine and nursing, providing valuable insights into the diagnosis of typhoid.
