VIRapid® LEGIONELLA CULTURE is an immunochromatographic test for the qualitative detection of Legionella genus, Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 and Legionella pneumophila serogrups 1-15 in samples from bacterial cultures obtained from human respiratory or environmental samples.
Detection and identification of the main Legionella groups of clinical and environmental importance in a single assay (multitest format)
High specificity by the use of MAb in both conjugates and lines.
It is a very interesting alternative for processing positive cultures with a simple protocol and a quick visual and objective reading in just 15 minutes.
Each strip contains a final control line for the validation of the assay, able to react even if the sample is negative.
All the reagents needed to develop the test are included in the kit.
