A rapid, one-step test for the qualitative detection of Cryptosporidium antigen in human feces. For professional in vitro diagnostic use only.
Cryptosporidium is an intestinal protozoan parasite and a common cause of watery diarrhea (cryptosporidiosis) worldwide. It is transmitted by the fecal-oral route, most often through contaminated water or food. Infection can be severe and prolonged in young children and immunocompromised patients.
Detecting Cryptosporidium antigen in a stool sample gives a fast result without relying on microscopic examination of stained smears, which requires experience and can miss low numbers of oocysts.
For full test procedure, reading time and limitations, please refer to the package insert supplied with the kit.
