Strep A Rapid Test for Throat Swabs    

Rapid test for the qualitative detection of Strep A antigens in throat swabs. For professional in vitro diagnostic use only. 

SUMMARY of Strep A Rapid Test for Throat Swabs    

Streptococcus pyogenes belongs to the group of immobile, gram-positive cocci, which contain the Lancefiled Group A antigens and can cause serious illnesses like pharyngitis, respiratory infections, impetigo, endocarditis, mengingitis, childbed fever and arthritis. If left untreated, these infections may lead to serious complications, such as rheumatic fever or pertonsillar abscesses. Conventional detection of Group A streptococcal infections involved the identification of living organisms, which could take 24-48 hours longer. This Strep A test cassette is a rapid test that provides qualitative detection of Strep A antigens in throat swabs within 5 minutes. The test makes use of special Lancefield Group A streptococcus-specific antibodies to selectively detect Strep A antigens in throat swabs
