Cryptosporidium Antigen Test in Gandhidham

Sterling Accuris offers the Cryptosporidium Antigen Test in Gandhidham to test for Cryptosporidiosis which is a disease caused by the parasite Cryptosporidium.
Overview of Cryptosporidium Antigen test
Cryptosporidium are tiny parasitic organisms that infect the intestines of both humans and animals. Among the various species that can cause infections in humans, Cryptosporidium hominis and Cryptosporidium parvum are the most common. Infected individuals and animals excrete small, infectious oocysts in their faeces, which can contaminate recreational and drinking water sources. Humans can become infected through the ingestion of contaminated water or food, as well as through the faeco-oral route. Infection can occur easily, with as few as 100 oocysts being capable of causing illness. Waterborne transmission is a major method of spreading the infection, as Cryptosporidium oocysts can withstand cold temperatures and disinfection with chlorine. This test is performed using ELISA, which detects the presence of the parasitic antigen in the stool sample.
Sterling Accuris offers a sensitive Cryptosporidium test in Gandhidham with reliable and timely reports.
Why and When is the Cryptosporidium test Done?
A doctor will recommend a cryptosporidium antigen test if you experience beyond ten bouts of fluid-filled diarrhoea per day, are unable to hold any kind of drink or food down, or exhibit signs of extreme dehydration like:
- weakness.
- Feeling drained or lightheaded.
- A sense of lightheaded upon standing.
- reduced urination.
- concentrated urine.
Diarrhoea poses a serious threat to immunocompromised individuals, including those with AIDS, infants, and older adults. It can be a prolonged and life-threatening condition, leading to severe dehydration and wasting.
Cryptosporidium Antigen Test: Main Highlights
- Instructions: No fasting is required
- Recommended Age:All age groups
- Sample type for test: Stool sample
How To Interpret The Cryptosporidium Antigen Test Report?
The existence of cryptosporidium antigens is indicated by a positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay outcome, which is taken as proof that one has been infected with the parasite.
The medical history and symptoms experienced by the patient should be taken into consideration while analysing the results of the test.
FAQs
Can cryptosporidiosis spread via contact?
Cryptosporidiosis can pass from person to person, although not directly, thus, it is transmissible. When you neglect to wash your hands after using the restroom and have cryptosporidiosis, you may pass on the parasite to whatever you touch.
Who is susceptible to cryptosporidiosis?
The risk of contracting cryptosporidiosis is highest among children between the ages of 1 and 4. Since they have yet to comprehend how germs transmit or have appropriate hand washing practises, it spreads quickly among children.
How contagious is Cryptosporidium?
Cryptosporidium is a highly chlorine-resistant intracellular protozoan parasite. In properly treated water, its oocysts can endure for over 7 days. Upon excretion from infected humans and animals, the oocysts are immediately infectious and are excreted in significantly larger quantities than the required human infectious dose of 10 oocysts or less.
