Mycoplasma Pneumoniae Antigen Test
Product Description
The Mycoplasma Pneumoniae Antigen Test is an advanced, rapid chromatographic immunoassay designed for the qualitative detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae antigens in human nasopharyngeal swab, sputum, or bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) specimens. This test delivers accurate, point-of-care results within 15–20 minutes, aiding clinicians in the timely diagnosis of active Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections—a leading cause of atypical community-acquired pneumonia.
Utilizing highly specific monoclonal antibodies conjugated to colloidal gold particles, the assay employs a lateral flow mechanism to capture M. pneumoniae antigens with high sensitivity. The test differentiates acute infections by targeting pathogen-specific proteins, enabling early intervention and reducing reliance on time-consuming culture methods or molecular testing. Its user-friendly format requires minimal training and no specialized equipment, making it suitable for clinics, emergency departments, and resource-limited settings.
