Platelia Aspergillus assay for diagnosis of disseminated histoplasmosis.

S Ranque1, R Pelletier, A Michel-Nguyen, F Dromer.   

Abstract

The Platelia Aspergillus assay tested positive in 8 of 11 patients with disseminated histoplasmosis. While other available methods for diagnosis have several drawbacks, this cross-reactivity is particularly valuable in the perspective of practitioners outside the USA who cannot use the test detecting antigen of Histoplasma capsulatum.
