• These tests are qualitative and semi-quantitative.
• The rapid slide test is used primarily as a screening procedure especially useful when large numbers of sera must be examined.
• The tube test should be used to confirm positive results obtained by the slide test.
• Francisella Tularensis Control Antiserum is used in agglutination tests in conjunction with the Febrile Antigen as a positive control.
