Polyene antibiotics in assessing significance of antistreptolysin O activity

Journal of Clinical Pathology
K C Watson, E J Kerr

Abstract

Antistreptolysin O activity in serum is due either to antibody or to altered lipoprotein molecules. The latter can be inhibited by performing antistreptolysin tests using a polyene antibiotic such as amphotericin B as diluent.
