Correct Answer: Wassermann reaction
Description: The complement fixation test (CFT) was extensively used in syphilis serology after being introduced by Wasserman in 1906. However, there is now a trend to replace the CFT with the simple flocculation tests.

In essence the test consists of two antigen-antibody reactions, one of which is the indicator system. REF: ROBBINS pathology 10th edition
