ASI ASO Latex Test
Testing of Antistreptolysin-O (ASO) will detect the presence of antibodies from a prior Strep A infection. This is important in the diagnosis of post infection complications of some heart and kidney diseases (Rheumatic fever and Glomerulonephritis).
Intended Use
The ASI ASO Slide Test is a latex slide agglutination assay for the qualitative and semiquantitative detection of antiStreptolysin-O (ASO) antibodies in human serum. No initial dilution of patient samples is required for this test. These materials are intended to be acquired, possessed and used only by health professionals.
ASI's ASO latex reagent consists of latex particles coated with streptolysin-O. In the presence of antistreptolysin-O levels greater than 200 IU/ml in serum, the coated latex particles will agglutinate providing a visual observable reaction of antigen and antibody.
