Test Details
The PNEUMOSLIDE IgM IFA Test is an immunofluorescence assay used to detect IgM antibodies against various pathogens that cause respiratory infections. These pathogens include Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, and Legionella pneumophila.
During the test, patient serum samples are mixed with antigens from the specific pathogens. If IgM antibodies are present in the serum, they will bind to the antigens. A fluorescent dye-labeled secondary antibody is then added to detect the binding. The presence of fluorescence indicates a positive result, suggesting recent or current infection.
The PNEUMOSLIDE IgM IFA Test is particularly useful in diagnosing respiratory infections caused by these pathogens when other diagnostic methods may not provide conclusive results. It is often used in conjunction with clinical symptoms and other laboratory tests to provide a comprehensive diagnosis.

The PNEUMOSLIDE IgM IFA test is an immunofluorescence assay used to detect IgM antibodies against various pathogens that cause respiratory infections, such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, and Legionella pneumophila. This test involves using a microscope to examine patient serum samples that have been mixed with antigens from the specific pathogens. If IgM antibodies are present in the serum, they will bind to the antigens, and a fluorescent dye-labeled secondary antibody will be added to detect the binding. The presence of fluorescence indicates a positive result, suggesting recent or current infection. The PNEUMOSLIDE IgM IFA test is useful in diagnosing respiratory infections caused by these pathogens, especially in cases where other diagnostic methods may not be conclusive. It is often used in conjunction with clinical symptoms and other laboratory tests to provide a comprehensive diagnosis. |
