Latex Agglutination Test For Bacterial Antigens

The latex agglutination test for bacterial antigens is a rapid diagnostic test used to detect specific bacterial infections. It involves mixing a patient's sample (e.g., blood, urine, or cerebrospinal fluid) with latex beads coated with antibodies. If the target bacterial antigen is present, the beads will clump together (agglutinate), indicating a positive result. This test is commonly used to identify pathogens like Streptococcus, E. coli, or meningitis-causing bacteria. It is quick, with minimal preparation and risks, typically limited to sample collection discomfort. Results help guide treatment decisions and confirm infections.
