A new, rapid test for the direct detection of antibodies to E. coli O157 Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in serum is now available from Thermo Scientific Limited. By eliminating the need for culture, Thermo Scientific O157 Check LPS Antibody Kit (DR0190M) provides a result in minutes, allowing prompt action to be taken to prevent further spread of infection.

Although stool culture is performed routinely if E. coli O157 infection is suspected, the prior administration of antibiotics can severely compromise the isolation and growth of the organism. Antibodies to E. coli O157 LPS will appear in the blood of infected patients at an early stage of infection. A direct serum test, therefore, provides a useful additional aid to diagnosis.

Thermo Scientific O157 Check LPS Antibody Kit is quick and simple to perform, providing a highly specific and sensitive result by latex agglutination in just 3 minutes.

As an introductory offer, Thermo Scientific has made 50 kits available to the first 50 enquirers - completely free of charge - providing an opportunity for the speed and simplicity of Thermo Scientific O157 Check LPS Antibody Kit to be experienced first hand.
