VITROS syphilis assay now available on VITROS 3600 immunodiagnostic system, VITROS 5600 and VITROS XT 7600 integrated systems in the U.S.
QuidelOrtho Corporation has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) 510(k) clearance for its VITROS syphilis assay as part of its menu.
Using the automated VITROS systems, this assay is intended for the qualitative determination of total (IgG and IgM) antibodies to Treponema pallidum (TP)-specific antigens in human serum and plasma using the automated VITROS 3600, 5600 and XT 7600 systems. The presence of antibodies to TP-specific antigens, in conjunction with non-treponemal laboratory tests and clinical findings may aid in the diagnosis of syphilis infection. The VITROS syphilis assay is not intended for blood and tissue donor screening. With the addition of the U.S., the VITROS syphilis assay is now available globally where QuidelOrtho products are available.
