Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the Legionella Urinary Antigen Test in Petlad to ascertain the diagnosis of Legionella pneumophila infection.
Overview of Legionella Urinary Antigen Test
The urinary antigen test (UAT), which finds a Legionella bacteria molecule in urine, is the most frequently used laboratory test for diagnosing Legionnaires' disease. If the test is positive and the patient has pneumonia, you should assume that they have Legionnaires' disease. Even with antibiotic therapy, the test can continue to be positive for a few weeks following the illness. The UAT recognises L. pneumophila serogroup 1, as the largely prevailing reason for Legionnaires' disease. A patient with a negative urine antigen result may still have Legionnaires' illness caused by other Legionella species or serogroups because all species and serogroups of Legionella are potentially harmful. For this reason, utilising culture and UAT together is advised.
