In this sense, the partial sums are Cauchy sequence Cauchy only if this limit exists and is equal to zero. The test is inconclusive if the limit of the summand is zero. Ratio test D Alembert s criterion . Suppose that there exists math r math such that math lim n to infty left frac a n 1 a n right r. math If r 1, then the series converges. If r 1, then the series diverges. If r 1, the ratio test is inconclusive, and the series may converge or diverge. Root test or n th root test Cauchy s criterion . Define r as follows math r limsup n to infty sqrt n a n , math where lim sup denotes the limit superior possibly if the limit exists it is the same value . If r 1, then the series converges.

unreferenced date August 2008 Nontreponemal tests refer to a class of syphilis diagnostics that detect infection by indirect markers of infection. Nontreponemal Tests detect biomarker s that are released during cellular damage that occurs from the syphilis spirochete . In contrast treponemal tests look for antibody antibodies that are a direct result of the infection thus, anti treponeme IgG, IgM and to a lesser degree IgA Nontreponemal tests Syphilitic infection leads to the production of nonspecific antibodies that react to cardiolipin . This reaction is the foundation of nontreponemal assays such as the VDRL Venereal Disease Research Laboratory test and Rapid Plasma Reagin RPR test. Both these test are flocculation type tests that use an antigen antibody interaction. The complexes remain suspended in solution and therefore visible due to the lipid based antigen s. All nontreponemal tests measure immunoglobulin s G IgG and M IgM anti lipid antibodies formed by the host in response both to lipoidal material released from damaged host cells early in infection and to lipid from the cell surfaces of the treponeme itself. These nontreponemal tests are widely used for qualitative syphilis screening. However, their usefulness is limited by decreased sensitivity in early primary syphilis and during late syphilis, when a large number of untreated patients will be negative by these methods. With nontreponemal tests, false positive reactions can occur for a large number of reasons, the most common of which is other infections, both viral and bacterial. Additionally these tests may show false negative when the patient s antibody titer is very high due to a hook effect also called a prozone effect . Because of the issues with false positives, confirmation with a second treponemal test that is specific for T. pallidum antibodies is recommended. The tests are relatively simple to perform ... test reactions. DEFAULTSORT Nontreponemal Tests For Syphilis Category Sexually transmitted diseases ... more details
