Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The Platelia Toxo IgM Kit is an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) device designed for the qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in human serum or plasma. It aids in diagnosing acute toxoplasmosis by identifying immune responses to the parasitic protozoan Toxoplasma gondii, supporting epidemiological tracking of the infection.
This in-vitro diagnostic kit is supplied as a single-use reagent system for laboratory use, requiring human serum or plasma (collected with EDTA, heparin, or citrate). It is classified under FDA 510(k) clearance (K894948) and falls under Device Class II (LGD) per regulation 21 CFR 866.3780, with no third-party certification required. Storage and handling follow standard in-vitro diagnostic protocols, and its use is restricted to qualified microbiology laboratories.
