Chagas Western Blot IgG (12T) (CHA-WB12G) is a single use qualitative test of serological IgG diagnosis by Immunoblot Assay of American trypanosomiasis (Trypanosoma cruzi) intended for confirmatory testing of a positive or equivocal result obtained through classic screening tests. Kit of 12 tests.
CHAGAS WESTERN BLOT IgG TEST
The WHO and the American CDC recommend the use of two serological techniques for the diagnosis of chronic forms of Chagas disease, including immunoblot (DPDx American trypanosomiasis, 2019).
In order to answer the demand, LDBIO Diagnostics developed a reliable test based on the Western blot technique. Associated with highly sensitive natural antigens, the CHAGAS Western blot IgG test is a robust confirmation technique of classical screening tests.
The excellent performances of the Western blot technique would allow the diagnosis of congenital Chagas disease in children several months after birth (Abras et al., 2017).
Its high specificity also ensure a low risk of cross-reaction, including regarding species of the Leishmania genus (Pérez-Molina & Molina, 2018, Abras et al., 2016).
Each kit is composed of sensitized and precut strips, the ready-to-use liquid reagents, and the positive control serum.
