Typhoid fever is a bacterial infection caused by the bacterium Salmonella typhi. Salmonella typhi is a gram-negative, facultative anaerobic bacterium of the family Enterobacteriaceae. Salmonella typhi is primarily transmitted via the fecal-oral route, often via the consumption of contaminated food or water. In areas with poor sanitation, inadequate hygiene practices, and limited access to clean food and water, typhoid fever is a persistent threat as these bacteria can survive for several weeks in water, sewage, and soil.
Once ingested, Salmonella typhi targets the intestinal tract and penetrates the intestinal mucosa to enter the host bloodstream. Migrating via the bloodstream of the host, the bacteria cause a systemic infection. Then, the bacteria replicate within the phagocytic cells of the reticuloendothelial system, primarily in the liver, spleen, and bone marrow. The pathogenesis of Salmonella typhi depends on various factors, including the Vi antigen and the type III secretion system. The Vi antigen enhances the immune evasion ability of the bacteria. In contrast, the type III secretion system allows the bacteria to inject toxins into host cells and manipulate the immune responses of the host body. The severity of typhoid fever may range from a mild flu-like disease to a life-threatening illness with potentially life-threatening complications such as intestinal perforation, bleeding, and sepsis. Typhoid IgG/IgM Rapid Test – Accurate, Fast, and Reliable Diagnosis.
The Typhoid IgG/IgM Rapid Test is an advanced immunochromatographic assay designed for the quick and accurate detection of Salmonella typhi antibodies (IgG and IgM) in human blood, serum, or plasma. Ideal for clinics, hospitals, and laboratories, this test provides results in 15-20 minutes, enabling timely diagnosis and treatment of typhoid fever.

Rapid test kits for the detection of typhoid fever most often come in the form of serological assays. The test procedure requires the collection of a blood, serum, or plasma sample by a healthcare professional via standard venipuncture or fingerstick techniques. If the test is not performed with a whole blood sample, the collected whole blood sample can be centrifuged to obtain a serum sample or placed into a tube with anticoagulants to obtain a plasma sample. When the required sample is ready, a few drops are added to the sample well (S) on the test strip. Then, a few drops of the included buffer solution or sample diluent are applied to the same well, and a timer is started. After a reaction period of approximately 15 to 20 minutes, the results should be ready to be read qualitatively on the test strip. If a colored line appears in the test line region (T), it indicates the presence of antibodies against Salmonella typhi. If no line appears in the test line region (T), the test result is considered negative. Regardless of the presence of the test line (T), the control line (C) should always appear as a confirmation of the validity of the results. If the control line (C) is absent at the end of the specified reaction period, the results are considered invalid, and the procedure should be repeated with a new test kit.
