FungiXpert® Candida Mannan IgG Antibody Detection K-Set (Lateral Flow Assay) is used for in vitro qualitative detection of the Candida mannan IgG antibody in serum.
Candida is one of the most common conditional pathogens in invasive fungal infections. Mannan, the main component of Candida cell wall, which has good immunogenicity and will be released into the blood during Candida infection. Mannan is currently recognized as one of the main biomarkers for the diagnosis of invasive Candida infection. During systemic fungal infection, mannan and its metabolic components persist in the body fluids of the host, which stimulates the humoral immune response of the host and produces specific antibodies against mannan. Systemic fungal infection lacks specific clinical symptoms and early rapid detection method. IgG Antibody is the most commonly formed antibody. It is usually released upon a secondary exposure to the antigen. This type of antibody can reflect either an ongoing or a previous infection. It usually comes in a secondary stage. The detection of Candida IgG antibody, especially when combined with IgM antibody detection, is of great significance in the judgement of infection stage of candidiasis, as well as monitoring the effect of drug usage.
