The group A streptococcus bacterium (GAS) is also known as streptococcus pyogenes, which is a form of β-hemolytic Streptococcus bacteria responsible for most cases of streptococcal illness. GAS can infect many locations in human body, the caused disease include bacteremia, impetigo, cellulitis, erysipelas, focal infections, necrotizing fasciitis, scarlet fever, sinusitis, strep throat and toxic shock syndrome. Some strains of GAS cause severe infection, such as acute rheumatic fever, Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis. And GAS is an important cause of puerperal fever worldwide, causing serious infection, and if not promptly diagnosed and treated, it may cause death in newly delivered mothers.
Brucellosis can enter the body via the skin, respiratory tract, or digestive tract. Once there, this intracellular organism can enter the blood and the lymphatics where it multiplies inside phagocytes and eventually cause bacteremia (bacterial blood infiltration). Symptoms vary from patient to patient but can include high fever, chills, and sweating.
The Brucellosis Rapid Test is a chromatographic immunoassay (CIA) for direct qualitative detection of Brucellosis antibody in human serum and plasma specimens.
