Diagnostic Performances of an in-House Immunochromatography Test Based on the Monoclonal Antibody 18B7 to Glucuronoxylomannan for Clinical Suspected Cryptococcosis: a Large-Scale Prototype Evaluation in Northern Thailand.
Objective: Cryptococcosis predominantly presents as a meningoencephalitis in Thailand. Early and expeditious diagnosis is essential for reducing both mortality and morbidity associated with cryptococcal meningitis. We aim to define and establish the diagnostic performances between the benchmark commercially available diagnostic kit (CrAg® LFA) and the large-scale prototype of an inexpensive in-house immunochromatographic test (ICT) based on monoclonal antibody (MAb) 18B7.
Methods: We have developed the large-scale prototype for the rapid detection of cryptococcal polysaccharide antigens by utilizing a single antibody sandwich ICT format employing MAb 18B7, which is highly specific to Cryptococcus neoformans glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) antigens. An in-house MAb18B7 ICT was manufactured in accordance with industry standards under the control of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 13485.
Results: The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for the in-house MAb 18B7 ICT were 99.10%, 97.61%, and 97.83%, respectively. The agreement kappa (κ) coefficient was 0.968 based on the retrospective evaluation of 580 specimens from patients living in northern Thailand with clinically suspected cryptococcosis.
Conclusion: The data suggest that this in-house MAb 18B7 ICT will be highly beneficial for addressing the issue of cryptococcal infection in Thailand. Moreover, it is anticipated that this inexpensive ICT can play a pivotal role in various global strategies aimed at eradicating cryptococcal meningitis among individuals living with HIV by 2030.
期刊介绍:
Mycopathologia is an official journal of the International Union of Microbiological Societies (IUMS). Mycopathologia was founded in 1938 with the mission to ‘diffuse the understanding of fungal diseases in man and animals among mycologists’. Many of the milestones discoveries in the field of medical mycology have been communicated through the pages of this journal. Mycopathologia covers a diverse, interdisciplinary range of topics that is unique in breadth and depth. The journal publishes peer-reviewed, original articles highlighting important developments concerning medically important fungi and fungal diseases. The journal highlights important developments in fungal systematics and taxonomy, laboratory diagnosis of fungal infections, antifungal drugs, clinical presentation and treatment, and epidemiology of fungal diseases globally. Timely opinion articles, mini-reviews, and other communications are usually invited at the discretion of the editorial board. Unique case reports highlighting unprecedented progress in the diagnosis and treatment of fungal infections, are published in every issue of the journal. MycopathologiaIMAGE is another regular feature for a brief clinical report of potential interest to a mixed audience of physicians and laboratory scientists. MycopathologiaGENOME is designed for the rapid publication of new genomes of human and animal pathogenic fungi using a checklist-based, standardized format.
