One Step Cassette Style Gonorrhea Test is a rapid direct binding test for the visual detection of gonorrhea antigen, in the secretory specimen and urine from urogenital system, as an aid in the diagnosis of gonococcus infection. It is based on the principle of double sandwich immunoassay for the detection of gonorrhea antigen in the secretory specimen or urine. Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies are employed to identify gonorrhea specifically. Both sensitivity and specificity of the test are higher than those of the present methods, which often involve long hours of culturing the collected specimen. Test results are not affected by any medication that is being taken. Results are read visually without any instrumentation. This test is ideal for screening specimen samples containing at least 1 x 105 bacteria per ml. |
