Viramed - Borrelia B31 IgG and IgM tests
The Borrelia B31 ViraStripe® IgG and IgM tests are immunoassays for the qualitative detection of IgG and IgM antibodies against Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto B31 antigens in human serum. As line immunoblots based on nitrocelluose, the Borrelia B31 ViraStripe® IgG and IgM use purified specific antigens of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto (strain B31, low passage, tick isolate). The Borrelia B31 ViraStripe® IgG and IgM Test Kits are composed of 50 nummerally sorted nitrocellulose stripes. The test procedure can be performed manually as well as on the common stripe immunoblot processors. The combination of the ViraCam® strip scanner and the ViraScan® software allows automated evaluation. Each strip offers maximum reliability through an integrated control system consisting of a negative control band, a serum control, three conjugate controls and a cut-off control.
