Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the ASO Titer Test in Mehsana to detect present or past infection by streptococci bacterium and to treat post-streptococcal complications.
Overview of ASO Titer Test (Antistreptolysin O Titer)
The ASO Titer test is done to check the presence of antibodies against streptococci bacteria in a blood sample. Infection with Group A Streptococcus (GAS) results in the release of bacterial toxin streptolysin O in the body. In response to this toxin, anti-streptolysin O (ASO) antibodies are produced in our body and the ASO Titre test detects the presence of these antibodies.
Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers a precise and reliable ASO Titre Test in Mehsana.
