| Chlamydia trachomatis is the most common cause of sexually transmitted venereal infection in the world. Chlamydia trachomatis has both a high prevalence and asymptomatic carriage rate, with frequent serious complications in both women and neonates. Complications of Chlamydia infection in women include cervicitis, urethritis, endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and increased incidence of ectopic pregnancy and infertility. |
| One Step Chlamydia Rapid Test Device (Swab/Urine) is a rapid visual immunoassay for the qualitative presumptive detection of Chlamydia trachomatis in female cervical swab, male urethral swab and male urine specimens. This kit is intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of Chlamydia infection. |

PRINCIPLE
| Chlamydia Trachomatis Ag Test is a qualitative membrane strip-based immunoassay for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis antigen directly from cervix or penis swab specimens. In this test procedure, anti-Chlamydia antibody is immobilized in the test line region of the device. After a specimen is placed in the specimen well, it reacts with anti-Chlamydia antibody coated particles that have been applied to the specimen pad. This mixture migrates chromatographically along the length of the test strip and interacts with the immobilized anti- Chlamydia antibody. If the specimen contains Chlamydia antigen, a coloured line will appear in the test line region indicating a positive result. If the specimen does not contain Chlamydia antigen, a coloured line will not appear in this region indicating a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a coloured line will always appear at the control line region indicating that proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred. |
