The rabies antibody test is indicated for individuals who because of high risk exposure to possibly rabid animals have been previously immunized against the virus. This population typically includes veterinarians, animal control officers, laboratory personnel and other workers who come in frequent contact with potentially rabid animals.

In 1974, when the Expanded Programme on Immunization was launched by the World Health Organization(WHO), less than 5% of the world's children were immunized against the six initial target diseases-diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis(whooping cough), polio, measles, and tuberculosis-during their first year of life. Up till then, immunization programmes were largely restricted to industrialized countries, and even then only partially implemented. By 1990, and again in the most recent statistics(after a slight interim drop in coverage rates), almost 80% of the 130 million children born each year were immunized before their first birthday. 3, record 7, English, - Expanded%20Programme%20on%20Immunization

A method used to detect and enumerate antibody producing cells. Cells obtained from, e. g. the spleen of an animal that has been immunized against sheep erythrocytes, are mixed into molten Agarose containing sheep erythrocytes. The agarose is poured into a Petri dish, allowed to set and then incubated at 37 ° C. Later, complement is poured into the dish, and any cells that have secreted antibody are revealed by the appearance of a zone of haemolysis round each of them. The agarose layer can be dried and stained so that the cells may be identified. The technique described reveals IgM secreting cells forming direct plaques. By the addition of an anti-IgG serum before the complement, indirect plaques due to IgG secreting cells can be revealed. Cells producing antibodies to antigens other than erythrocytes can be detected by coating the rythrocytes with the antigen as in passive haemolysis. 1, record 12, English, - balmolytic%20plaque%20test
