The performance of TestPack Strep A (Abbott Laboratories), a rapid enzyme immunoassay, was compared with a culture-based method for the detection of group A streptococci in 648 throat swabs. The rapid test correctly detected 99 of the 128 positive and 511 of the 520 negative specimens, a sensitivity of 77% and a specificity of 98%. Although highly specific, TestPack Strep A is less sensitive than culture techniques for the detection of group A streptococci in throat swabs.
对一种快速酶免疫测定法——TestPack A群链球菌检测试剂盒(雅培实验室出品),与一种基于培养的方法进行了比较,以检测648份咽拭子中的A群链球菌。快速检测法正确检测出了128份阳性标本中的99份以及520份阴性标本中的511份,灵敏度为77%,特异性为98%。尽管TestPack A群链球菌检测试剂盒具有高度特异性,但在检测咽拭子中的A群链球菌方面,其灵敏度低于培养技术。
