FACTVIEW Scrub Typhus Test Kit

A Scrub Typhus Test Kit is a diagnostic tool used to detect antibodies or antigens associated with the bacterium Orientia tsutsugamushi, which causes scrub typhus. Scrub typhus is a tropical disease transmitted to humans through the bite of infected chiggers (tiny mites found in rural and forested areas). It can lead to a range of symptoms, from mild to severe, and is a significant health concern in certain regions. The Scrub Typhus Test Kit helps in the diagnosis of scrub typhus by detecting specific antibodies or antigens in a patient's blood or serum.
