Pan-Fungal Screening Kits | Dynamiker

Pan-fungal screening is also called the BDG test, which stands for (1, 3)-β-D-glucan test. Many fungi, such as Candida, Fusarium, and Aspergillus, contain (1-3)-β-D-glucan in their cell wall polysaccharides, while bacteria, viruses, and human cells do not have this component.

The BDG test detects (1-3)-β-D-glucan in the fungal cell wall and is used for the early diagnosis of deep fungal infections, especially Candida and Aspergillus infections. It cannot be used for the diagnosis of cryptococcal and zygomycete infections (Mucor, Rhizopus, etc.).

Although it cannot distinguish the types of infected fungi, its negative results are of great significance in excluding invasive fungal diseases.

Dynamiker provides above 3 methods: dynamic colorimetric assay, ELISA assay and immunofluorescent assay to meet the detection needs of different medical scenarios.
