PNEUMOCOCCAL SCREEN TEST

RSV Rapid Test Cassette – Product code: SC-2382-20 A rapid test for the qualitative detection of Respiratory Syncytial Virus Antigen in nasopharyngeal swab or nasal aspirate specimens. For professional in vitro diagnostic use only. The RSV Rapid Test Cassette (Nasopharyngeal Swab/Nasal Aspirate) is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Respiratory Syncytial Virus antigen in nasopharyngeal swab or nasal aspirate specimens. It is intended to aid in the rapid differential diagnosis of respiratory syncytial virus viral infections. Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), which causes infection of the lungs and breathing passages, is a major cause of respiratory illness in young children. In adults, it may only produce symptoms of a common cold, such as a stuffy or runny nose, sore throat, mild headache, cough, fever, and a general feeling of being ill.

Monkeypox Virus Antibody Rapid Test – Product code: SC-2368-25. A rapid test for the qualitative detection of antibodies to Monkeypox Virus in human whole blood, serum or plasma. For professional in vitro diagnostic use only. The Monkeypox Virus Antibody Rapid Test is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of antibodies to Monkeypox Virus in whole blood, serum or plasma to aid in the diagnosis of Monkeypox Virus infection. Monkeypox is a zoonotic orthopoxvirus that incidentally causes disease in humans similar to smallpox, although with notably lower mortality. This virus is clinically relevant because it is endemic to western and central Africa, with outbreaks in the Western Hemisphere related to the exotic pet trade and international travel. Transmission can occur through contact with bodily fluids, skin lesions, or respiratory droplets of infected animals directly or indirectly via contaminated fomites.

Chlamydia Rapid Test – Product code: ICH-502(SC-0500-20) Rapid Chlamydia Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Chlamydia trachomatis in male urethral swabs, female cervical swabs and male urine specimens, as an aid in the diagnosis of Chlamydia infections. Chlamydia trachomatis is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the world. It is composed of elementary bodies (infectious form) and a reticulate or inclusion bodies (replicating form). Chlamydia trachomatis has high prevalence and asymptomatic rates, with serious complications that are frequent in both women and newborns. Complications of chlamydia infection in women include cervicitis, urethritis, endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and an increase in the incidence of ectopic pregnancy and infertility. Vertical transmission of the disease to the newborn during childbirth can cause conjunctivitis or pneumonia.

Clostridium Difficile Gdh Rapid Test – Product code: SC-0470-25 The Clostridium difficile rapid test is a rapid immunochromatographic test for the qualitative detection of Clostridium difficile GDH in human stool samples. The limit of detection was assessed by diluting a purified GDH preparation and the results show that the detected protein concentration is 1ng/mL. The Clostridium test allows the specific detection of C. difficile GDH in faecal samples. Samples with a positive Clostridium test result will require further testing for bacterial toxicity. Clostridium difficile is an anaerobic bacterium that acts as an opportunistic pathogen: it grows in the intestine when the normal flora is altered by antibiotic therapy. Some toxinogenic forms of Clostridium difficile cause infections from mild diarrhea to pseudomembranous colitis, potentially leading to death. The disorder is caused by two toxins produced by the toxinogenic forms of C.
