Fluorescent Antibody-Based Detection and Ultrastructural Analysis of<i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i>in Human Sputum

2024-10-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Pneumococcal pneumonia continues to be a significant global health burden, affecting both children and adults. Traditional diagnostic methods for sputum analysis remain challenging. The objective of this study was twofold: to develop a rapid and easy-to-perform assay for the identification of Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) directly in sputum specimens using fluorescence microscopy, and to chara...
