  • WHAT IS STREP A TEST FOR?

    Strep A Test is a specific immunological test for the detection of Group A streptococcus bacteria in throat infections. It helps to quickly know if a sore throat is caused by a Strep A or other germs (usually viruses) which do not require antibiotic treatment.

    WHAT IS STREPTOCOCCUS GROUP A?

    Group A ß-hemolytic streptococcus (also known as Streptococcus pyogenes) is the most common bacterial cause of acute pharyngitis and it is also responsible for some skin infections, such as impetigo and erysipelas. Most of the sore throats are caused by viral infections which clear up on their own without antibiotic treatment.

    Even if Strep A throat infections can solve within few days without treatment, physicians prescribe antibiotics to prevent related complications that can be serious, such as rheumatic fever or acute glomerulonephritis.

    WHO CAN USE STREP A TEST?

    Strep A Test can be used both by professional users and private customers, as preliminary test to determine the possible presence of streptococcus A bacteria in sore throat infections.

    HOW DOES STREP A TEST WORK?

    Group A ß-hemolytic streptococcus bacteria may be involved in case of sore throat infections. In order to treat it using antibiotic therapy, it is first necessary to identify it. Thanks to the specific extraction process of throat swab samples, a Group A streptococcus marker (LPS antigen) can be isolated and further identified using specific anti-LPS antigen antibodies. Quickly and reliable results in just 4 minutes. Evaluation reports show an overall agreement of 96,4% with reference method.

    The test strip has NOTHING written on it. NO test name, to confirm that it has been setup for Strp A. No valid date. Who is the manufacturer.

    Wish I’d read the reviews before purchasing… had the same as others a white line on the test line… pink line on the control line. What a waste of £6!

    2.0 out of 5 stars Not sure it worked

    I got a white line, as someone else did. I'm not entirely sure how to interpret that! I would not recommend this test kit.
