Term Description

This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the MiraVista Blastomyces Quantitative Antigen EIA kit, which does not differentiate between species of Blastomyces.

Part Description

LP411489-0   Blastomyces sp Ag
Blastomyces sp antigen testing is used to assist in the diagnosis and monitoring of Blastomycosis, a serious and potentially fatal fungal infection. Testing can be performed on a variety of specimens, including urine, serum, plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), offering a non-invasive way to diagnose blastomycosis. A positive Blastomyces antigen test may eliminate the need for surgical biopsy. In the case of a positive test results, patient exposure and travel history should be reviewed carefully as cross reaction of the Blastomyces antigen test and other dimorphic fungi is possible.
