A trusted technique for serological diagnosis

Immunofluorescence remains the reference technique for the serological diagnosis of certain parameters, such as Bartonella, Coxiella, Legionella, Chlamydia and Rickettsia. By allowing sample dilutions, it provides a quantitative value that can, in some cases, be very useful in guiding patient diagnosis.

It is a technique based on a very simple protocol, although it requires a certain level of experience in the reading and interpretation of results.

Product features

  • Differential diagnosis comparing 3 Chlamydia species in separated individual wells
  • MIF test for species-specific detection
  • Elementary body antigen (free from LPS) avoids cross reactions
  • Non spotted antigen avoids any misunderstanding in reading
  • Slides and complete kits available, including IgG sorbent for IgM detection
  • All necesary reagents are included in the kit
  • P- references include all the reagents required to perform the technique: slides, controls, PBS, mounting medium, conjugates, and sorbent when necessary. while S- references include slides only.
