POWER AND MICHAEL J. PELCZAR, JR. Department of Microbiology, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland Received for publication December 15, 1958 Interest in the Reiter strain of Treponema pallidum, a nonpathogenic, cultivatable, anaerobic spirochete, has been stimulated by the demonstration that the organism possesses four antigens; one, a thermolabile protein, being group specific for treponemes (D'Alessandro et al., 1949). This antigen has recently been employed in a Reiter protein complement fixation test for syphilis (Cannefax and Garson, 1957). Studies comparing the results of the Reiter protein complement fixation tests, the T. pallidum complement fixation test, and the T. pallidum immobilization test on syphilitic sera show, in general, that the Reiter protein complement fixation test antigen has a specificity and sensitivity comparable to the T. pallidum complement fixation and T. pallidum immobilization test antigens (D'Alessandro and Dardanoni, 1953; Cannefax and Garson, 1957; Rein et al., 1957; De Bruijn, 1957; De Bruijn and Bekker, 1957; Miller http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Bacteriology American Society For Microbiology
