What does it measure?
The Weil-Felix (rickettsial infections) test: It is a nonspecific agglutination test that utilises antigenic cross-reactivity between a rickettsia and certain non-motile Proteus serotypes for the detection of anti-rickettsia antibodies (so-called Weil-Felix antibodies) in a patient's serum. The Weil-Felix test is based on cross-reactions that occur between antibodies produced in acute rickettsial infections with antigens of OX (OX 19, OX 2, and OXK) strains of Proteus species. The rickettsia species include two antigenically defined groups that are closely related genetically but differ in their surface-exposed protein and lipopolysaccharide antigens.
