Tsutsugamushi’s disease
Scrub Typhus is an acute febrile illness caused by an infection of Orientia tsutsugamushi. Its clinical symptoms include early fever, chills, and headache that are similar to a cold, and also muscle pain, cough, vomiting, abdominal pain, and throat pain. This disease is transmitted by some species of trombiculid mites (chiggers) and the bite of this mite leaves a characteristic black eschar that is helpful to the physician in making the diagnosis. The condition of a person infected with the disease improves in a day or two if properly treated. However, if it is not correctly, the fever lasts about two weeks. Therefore, an early definitive diagnosis is very important.
Characteristics
- Qualitative test for the detection of specific IgM and IgG antibodies of Orientia tsutsugamushi existing in human blood (Serum, Plasma and Pureblood).
- Very easy to diagnose disease progress and reinfection status as IgM and IgG are tested at the same time.
- Store at room temperature (4–30 °C).
- Interpret test results very quickly.
- As a diagnostic kit, it is optimized for on-site diagnosis.
