Introduction

  • The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device is a professional infectious disease rapid test designed for qualitative detection of Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi antigens.
  • This rapid antigen test is suitable for human fecal specimens.
  • The device supports early infectious disease screening, stool-based antigen detection, and clinical evaluation of suspected enteric fever.
  • Results should be interpreted with symptoms, exposure history, clinical findings, and confirmatory testing when required.

What Is Covid Ag Test

The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device is a feces-based rapid diagnostic test used to detect Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi antigens. It supports preliminary screening of suspected enteric fever where quick stool-based antigen detection is required.

Importance

  • The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test is useful because enteric fever may begin with general symptoms such as fever, weakness, headache, abdominal pain, and digestive changes.
  • These symptoms may overlap with malaria, dengue, viral fever, gastroenteritis, and other infections.
  • Testing may support suspected typhoid fever screening, suspected paratyphoid fever screening, stool-based antigen detection, fever investigation in endemic regions, public health screening programs, hospital diagnosis support, and travel-related enteric fever evaluation.
  • Culture from blood or bone marrow remains a diagnostic gold standard, but rapid antigen testing can support faster preliminary screening where timely clinical direction is needed.

Intended Use

The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device by LARKSOIS Pharma may be used in professional infectious disease and fever screening environments.

Applications

  • Suspected typhoid fever screening
  • Suspected paratyphoid fever screening
  • Stool-based antigen detection
  • Fever investigation in endemic regions
  • Public health screening programs
  • Hospital and laboratory diagnosis support
  • Travel-related enteric fever evaluation
  • Point-of-care infectious disease testing
  • Diagnostic centers

How It Works

  • The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device generally works through a lateral flow immunoassay method.
  • A fecal sample is collected, processed with extraction buffer, and added to the test device.
  • If S. Typhi or S. Paratyphi antigens are present, they bind with specific antibodies and produce visible test lines according to the product insert.
  • A control line confirms correct sample flow and proper test performance.
  • If the control line does not appear, the result is invalid and testing should be repeated with a new device.

Method

The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device uses rapid lateral flow immunochromatographic technology for qualitative detection of Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi antigens in human fecal specimens.

Benefits

  • Rapid feces-based antigen detection
  • Detects Salmonella Typhi antigen
  • Detects Salmonella Paratyphi antigen
  • Supports simultaneous screening
  • Lateral flow rapid test format
  • Simple test procedure
  • Professional diagnostic application
  • Useful for hospitals, clinics, and laboratories

Specimen

The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device is designed for human fecal specimens. Correct stool sample collection, extraction, and handling are important for reliable rapid test performance.

Guidance

  • Use approved fecal specimens only
  • Collect specimens according to the product insert
  • Use clean and suitable stool collection materials
  • Avoid contaminated or improperly stored samples
  • Mix the fecal specimen with extraction buffer correctly
  • Apply the prepared sample properly to the test device
  • Read results only within the recommended time window
  • Handle all fecal specimens according to laboratory safety procedures

Note

Specimen collection, extraction, testing, timing, and storage should always follow the official LARKSOIS Pharma kit insert.

Cut Off

The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device by LARKSOIS Pharma is designed for qualitative detection of Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi antigens in human fecal samples. Detection of these antigens may support stool-based screening of suspected enteric fever.

Clinical Importance

  • The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device supports screening for typhoid and paratyphoid fever in suspected cases.
  • Because the product uses feces as specimen, it supports stool antigen detection in clinical and laboratory settings.
  • The test can support fever surveillance, outbreak response, and infectious disease screening programs.
  • Typhoid and paratyphoid can affect people living in or travelling from areas with unsafe water, poor sanitation, or hygiene challenges.
  • The rapid format helps diagnostic centers, clinics, hospitals, and healthcare camps perform fast preliminary testing.

Limitations

The Typhoid/Para Typhoid Ag Rapid Test Device is a screening aid and not a standalone final diagnosis. A negative result does not fully rule out infection, especially if antigen levels are below the detection limit or affected by prior treatment.

Instructions

  • For professional in-vitro diagnostic use only
  • Use approved fecal specimens only
  • Improper specimen collection may affect results
  • False positive or false negative results may occur
  • Negative results may require further testing if symptoms continue
  • Clinical evaluation should guide final diagnosis and patient management
  • Read results only within the recommended time
  • Follow the official product insert carefully
