Mycoplasma pneumoniae antigen test (swab)

The Mycoplasma pneumoniae antigen rapid test cartridge is designed for the direct detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae antigen in throat samples for the rapid diagnosis of acute respiratory tract infection. This bacterium is the most common cause of upper respiratory tract infections but can also cause pneumonia. This rapid immunochromatographic test is widely used as a screening tool and as an aid to the diagnosis of M. pneumoniae disease, due to its simple one-step performance.
