PRINCIPLE
The CRP Direct latex reagent is a suspension of polystyrene particles sensitized with anti-human C-reactive protein. When the reagent is faced against the serum, an antigen-antibody reaction takes place being easily visualized because of the latex agglutination.
DIAGNOSTIC USE
C-reactive protein is a γ-globulin, the level of which increases in inflammatory processes, in the acute phase of different diseases and after surgical operations. The main diagnostic value of its determination is in the detection of inflammatory processes having a rheumatic origin: acute articular rheumatism or chronic polyarthritis in its acute phase, and the control of the evolution of infl ammatory or infectious processes after therapy.
Single test result could not be used to make a clinical diagnosis. It should integrate clinical and laboratory data.
