A Novel, Inexpensive In-House Immunochromatographic Strip Test for Cryptococcosis Based on the Cryptococcal Glucuronoxylomannan Specific Monoclonal Antibody 18B7

A Novel, Inexpensive In-House Immunochromatographic Strip Test for Cryptococcosis Based on the Cryptococcal Glucuronoxylomannan Specific Monoclonal Antibody 18B7

The aim of this study was to develop a novel lateral flow immunochromatoghaphic strip test (ICT) for detecting cryptococcal polysaccharide capsular antigens using only a single specific monoclonal antibody, mAb 18B7. The mAb 18B7 is a well characterized antibody that specifically binds repeating epi...
