Shelf life of serum for serological reactions

Abstract

By involving the general medical network in the fight against sexually transmitted diseases, we will inevitably experience certain difficulties for some time in providing local doctors with the opportunity to widely use seroreactions to syphilis. This is especially true in medical districts of those remote areas, where, in the absence of a serologist on site, the doctor is forced to send sera by mail to the regional or district laboratory. In these cases, the possibility of a seroreaction with sera whose expiration date has already expired cannot be excluded.
