M-14005 Neisseria Gonorrhoeae Antigen Test Kit
Diagnostic Significance: Neisseria gonorrhoeae (N.G.) is the pathogenic microorganism that causes gonorrhea, a sexually transmitted disease primarily characterized by purulent inflammation of the genitourinary tract. Gonorrhea infection during pregnancy poses significant risks to both mother and child, leading to complications such as spontaneous abortion, preterm delivery, and intrauterine growth retardation. Perinatal transmission can result in neonatal gonococcal conjunctivitis. Gonorrhea has become one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases and poses a significant public health threat.
