Candida Mannan IgM Antibody Detection K-Set (Lateral Flow Assay)
Product Introduction
FungiXpert® Candida Mannan IgM Antibody Detection K-Set (Lateral Flow Assay) is used for in vitro qualitative detection of the Candida mannan IgM antibody in serum, providing a rapid and effective auxiliary method for the diagnosis of susceptible population.
Candida is a type of yeast that causes the majority of fungal infections. Candida albicans is the most abundant invading strain that can be offensive to the body, in the presence of predisposing factors. When the candida infection occurs, IgM antibody is the first antibody released, following any first-time exposure to a certain antigen. Once formed, it activates the compliment and initiate the phagocytic system to help the body getting rid of invading antigens. IgM are specific to our intravascularly tissues.
They are the most predominant immunoglobulins released upon any early infection. Detection of candida IgM antibody, as well as its combination with IgG antibody detection, is of great value on the diagnosis and stage determination of invasive candidiasis infection.
