Popis: Three systems of storing fluorescein-conjugated antirabies globulin and mouse brain suspensions were investigated to find their effect on the reliability of the fluorescent antibody test for rabies. Premixed conjugate and mouse brain suspension, dispensed in test aliquots and maintained at −20°C until required, gave the most consistent results. After 9 months' storage the reagents gave a satisfactory test with known positive smears.
