Mycoplasma Pneumoniae Antigen (200µg) (QTXAG-354-200) is Mycoplasma pneumoniae whole organisms that have been purified and detergent treated to enrich antigenic proteins and decrease background.
Mycoplasma pneumoniae antigen is produced from whole organisms that have been purified and detergent treated to enrich antigenic proteins and decrease background.
Early diagnosis of M. pneumoniae, usually by an ELISA IgM assay, is important because the infection often responds well to appropriate antibiotics. However, ELISA assays, particularly those for IgM detection, often exhibit poor sensitivity and may, in addition, be susceptible to cross reactivity from other pathogens. This purified antigen preparation, which is highly reactive to IgM, will offer in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) manufacturers the opportunity to introduce next generation ELISA assays which demonstrate greater specificity set against an inherently low background signal.
