Use this rapid, lateral flow immunoassay for the direct qualitative detection of Clostridium difficile toxin A and B. Enhance laboratory performance and efficiency with excellent clinical sensitivity and specificity and a simple walk-away procedure.
Xpect C. difficile Toxin A/B uses antibody-coated coloured particles to bind with target antigen in the diluted sample. The coloured antibody/antigen complex moves along the test membrane. Immobilised antibodies specific to target antigen capture the colour-labelled antigen complex at the test region, causing a clearly visible line to appear. This line will not appear in the absence of specific antigen. Immobilised, non-specific antibodies in the control region capture the colour-labelled antibodies, whether antigen is present or not, resulting in a clearly visible control line.
