Salmonella Rapid Test (1 pc/box)

Salmonella Rapid Test (1 test/box)

The Salmonella Typhi/Paratyphi Antigen Rapid Test (stool) is a visual immunoassay for the qualitative, presumptive, and differential detection of Salmonella Typhi and/or Paratyphi antigens in human stool samples. This kit is intended to aid in the detection of S. Typhi and S. Paratyphi A, which are associated with typhoid and paratyphoid fever, with high sensitivity and specificity.

Salmonella infections are caused by bacteria, not viruses. A severe form of the infection, typhoid fever, is now rare but characterized by high fever and altered mental status. In most cases, the bacteria enter the body through contaminated food. Contaminated food sources often include animal-derived products (poultry, cattle, milk, or eggs), which usually appear normal in smell and appearance, but vegetables may also be contaminated. Contamination can occur, for example, if food handlers do not wash their hands properly after using the restroom. Symptoms of salmonellosis usually appear within 8 to 48 hours and include diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, nausea, vomiting, and sudden headache. In individuals with a healthy immune system, the illness typically resolves within a week without special treatment. This product is available for professional use only.
