Description

Exposure to bacterial antigens during the course of an infection causes the body to produce antibodies that can cause an agglutination when combined with the homologous "in vitro" (direct serum agglutination).

Weil-Felix Reaction (for Rickettsiosis): the serological test uses strains of proteus vulgaris (OXK, OX2, OX19) as antigens in the diagnosis of certain rickettsie infections (murine typhus, fecal fever). The reaction is due to the presence of common antigens between proteus strains and gram negative cocci bacilli, of the genus reckettsia. The presence of antibodies with a titre of 1: 160 should be considered suspect.
