Serotype sensitivity of a lateral flow immunoassay for cryptococcal antigen.

Marcellene A Gates-Hollingsworth1, Thomas R Kozel.   

Abstract

To meet the needs of a global community, an immunoassay for cryptococcal antigen (CrAg) must have high sensitivity for CrAg of all major serotypes. A new immunoassay for CrAg in lateral flow format was evaluated and found to have a high sensitivity for detection of serotypes A, B, C, and D.
