Intended Use
For professional in vitro diagnostic use only.
Clinical Significance
The group A β-haemolytic streptococci produces various toxins that can act as antigens, one of these exotoxins is streptolysin O. The affected organism produces specific antibodies against streptolysin O. The concentration of ASL (O) in the patient's serum will enable to establish the degree of infection due to β-haemolytic streptococci.
Test Principle
Measurement of antigen-antibody reaction by the end-point method.
Stability & Storage
The reagents are stable until expiry date when kept at 2-8°C. Stability in the instrument is at least 4 weeks if contamination is avoided. Do not freeze.
