The Strep A Rapid Test – BaseCheck from TPT Medical is a professional-grade strep a rapid test designed for the qualitative detection of Group A Streptococcus antigen in human throat swab specimens. Group A Streptococcus (Streptococcus pyogenes) is the primary cause of bacterial pharyngitis and tonsillitis, particularly in children and adolescents.
Prompt and accurate diagnosis of Group A streptococcal infections is important to initiate early treatment and reduce the risk of complications such as rheumatic fever and glomerulonephritis. The strep a rapid test offers a reliable, point-of-care solution that delivers visual results in a short time without requiring laboratory equipment.
The test uses lateral flow immunochromatographic technology to detect GAS antigen directly from throat swabs. It is ideal for use in pediatric clinics, family practices, hospitals, and school health programs.
This easy-to-use format enhances workflow efficiency in busy clinical environments and aids in distinguishing bacterial infections from viral causes of sore throat.
