RICKETTSIA ELISA

Rickettsia ELISA modules are 12 x 8-well strip modules optimally coated with either lipopolysaccharide (LPS) antigens or rOmpB protein antigens. They are packaged in resealable pouches with 2 x 2 gram molecular seive desiccant packets. The LPS antigen is suggested for IgG testing, as this antigen is most often immunodominant and has broad reactivity for spotted fever organisms (SFG-96). The rOmpB antigen is more species-specific and is suggested for IgM testing, where it is the immunodominant antigen. Modules for IgG and IgM use are prepared with different coating concentrations and must be ordered separately.

ELISA plates and full kits can be prepared for any species of Rickettsia. Call or email info@fullerlabs.com for details.
