The One Step Test for PCT (colloidal gold) is intended for use together with the FIA8000 Quantitative Immunoassay Analyzer (FIA8000). The product employs colloidal gold immunochromatogrphy to determine PCT in human serum, plasma, or whole blood specimens. Two monoclonal antibodies are employed to identify PCT specifically, resulting in a purplish red streak appears on the test line. The color intensity of the test line increases in proportion to the concentrations of PCT.

Then insert test card into the FIA8000 Quantitative Immunoassay Analyzer, the concentration of PCT is measured quantitatively and displayed on the screen. The result can be transmitted to the lab or hospital information system.

PCT can be used to judge the severity of bacterial infection and to predict the risks of systemic inflammation and sepsis. PCT is the best indicator for bacterial infection and sepsis diagnosis. It was shown that PCT may help guide therapy and reduce antibiotic use, which can save on cost of antibiotic prescriptions and drug resistance.
