The NADAL® Gonorrhea Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of gonorrhea antigens in secretory specimens from the urogenital system. It is designed to aid in the diagnosis of gonococcal infection and for professional use only.
Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Gonorrhea is one of the most common infectious bacterial diseases and is most frequently transmitted during sexual intercourse, including vaginal, oral and anal sex. The causative organism can infect the throat, causing a severe sore throat. It can also infect the anus and rectum, producing a condition called proctitis. In females, it can infect the vagina, causing irritation and discharge (vaginitis). Infection of the urethra may cause urethritis with burning, painful urination and discharge. If women have symptoms, they often notice vaginal discharge, increased urinary frequency and urinary discomfort. The spread of bacteria to the fallopian tubes and abdomen may cause severe lower-abdominal pain and fever. The average incubation for gonorrhea is approximately 2 to 5 days following sexual contact with an infected partner. However, symptoms may appear as late as 2 weeks after contact. A preliminary diagnosis of gonorrhea can be made at the time of examination.[1] In women, gonorrhea is a common cause of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID can lead to internal abscesses and long-lasting, chronic pelvic pain. PID can damage the fallopian tubes enough to cause infertility or increase the risk of ectopic pregnancy. A smear or swab of urethral or cervical discharge can be taken and tested using the NADAL® Gonorrhea Test.
