ASO

Product Description

The Biorex Diagnostics Anti-Streptolysin O (ASO) Assay is a ready-to-use reagent system for the quantitative determination of ASO antibodies in human serum, providing essential insight into recent streptococcal infection. ASO antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to streptolysin O, a toxin released by Streptococcus pyogenes. Measurement of ASO levels is widely used in clinical diagnostics to help confirm prior streptococcal exposure and support the diagnosis of post-streptococcal complications such as rheumatic fever and acute glomerulonephritis. Elevated ASO titres indicate a recent or ongoing immune response to infection and are valuable in conjunction with clinical findings.

Key Features
• Quantitative measurement of antibody levels in serum
• Clinically relevant for detecting recent Streptococcus pyogenes infection
• Highly sensitive immunoassay or turbidimetric method ensures accuracy and reproducibility
• Ready-to-use reagents simplify workflow and reduce preparation errors
• Compatible with automated analysers and manual laboratory methods

Benefits
The Biorex Assay delivers precise, reliable, and reproducible results, supporting diagnosis, monitoring, and research applications in infectious disease and immunology. Its analytical methodology enables accurate quantification of ASO antibody levels, assisting clinicians in identifying recent streptococcal infections and evaluating the risk of post-infectious complications. By providing consistent and dependable measurements, the assay supports effective clinical decision-making and patient management.

This assay is particularly valuable in hospital laboratories, microbiology departments, paediatric units, and clinical chemistry settings where assessment of streptococcal infection and related complications is required. Its ready-to-use format streamlines workflow, reduces pre-analytical variability, and ensures consistent performance across laboratory environments. Compatibility with automated analysers allows seamless integration into routine testing platforms, supporting efficient, high-throughput analysis while maintaining accuracy and reliability.

In addition to clinical diagnostics, the Biorex ASO Assay supports research into immune response mechanisms, infectious disease progression, and post-streptococcal syndromes, making it an essential tool for advancing understanding of bacterial infections and improving patient outcomes.
