Product Description
Immunological testing for specific antibodies to streptococcal metabolic products provides important information about previous streptococcal infections. Antibodies are produced against this pathogen and its metabolic products. One example is the antibody to streptolysin O, an enzyme produced by Group A -hemolytic streptococci (Lancefield classification). Antistreptolysin O testing is performed in cases of toxic and sensitization-related conditions, such as rheumatic fever (main symptoms: carditis, polyarthritis, Sydenham's chorea, subcutaneous nodules, erythema marginatum) and acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis.
