SCREEN TEST TETANO
Tetanus Rapid Test
REF: SC-0746-40
Rapid immunoassay for the qualitative detection of tetanus toxin antibodies in whole blood, serum or plasma to aid in the diagnosis of tetanus toxin infection. The test is designed to assist in the tetanus prophylaxis of patients at risk. Since this disease does not confer immunity, the only prevention is vaccination. Immunoprotection is given by measuring the concentration of tetanus antibodies. As part of emergency medicine, knowing in real time the immune status of subjects at risk (deep wounds) allows for better management of appropriate tetanus prophylaxis.
