Answer»

Reagin (nonspecific ANTIBODY) – RPR, VDRL (flocculation TESTS)

IMMOBILISING (specific antibody) – TPHA (T. pallidum hemagglutination),

FTA-ABS (fluorescent treponemal assay – with antibody ABSORPTION), TPI (T. pallidum immobilisation test)

Reagin (nonspecific antibody) – RPR, VDRL (flocculation tests)

Immobilising (specific antibody) – TPHA (T. pallidum hemagglutination),

FTA-ABS (fluorescent treponemal assay – with antibody absorption), TPI (T. pallidum immobilisation test)
