Practical value of WR provocation in blood

Abstract

Practical value of WR provocation in blood. A major drawback of WR is a 50% negative result in latent syphilis. Hence the methods of provocation. The Gennerich-MilLian method, proposed for the first time (provocation with the introduction of neosalsarsan), gives a positive result infrequently. Oppenheim suggests provocation with milk, tuberculin, Konradi - typhoid vaccine.
