Use Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Brucella melitensis Agglutinating Sera as control antisera in a standard Widal test for epidemiological and diagnostics purposes. Serological tests are based on the fact that antibodies produced in the serum in response to exposure to bacterial antigens will visibly agglutinate with bacteria carrying homologous antigens. Brucella agglutinating sera is used as a control to check for satisfactory performance.
