Detection of secreted lipase proteins from candida species

摘要: Methods and devices for the detection of proteins secreted by pathogenic growth form Candida species are disclosed. The disclosed may constitute a method diagnosis acute or chronic infections, including candidiasis, caused microorganisms species, such as C. albicans, example. present invention incorporate antibodies specific to lipase whose expression is differentiated upon conversion from commensal form. be used in assays allow candidal infections disease conditions. Either monoclonal polyclonal used, case monoclonals, epitopes LIP protein detected well itself.
