Performance of the Colloidal Gold Immunochromatography of Cryptococcal Antigen on Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid for the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Cryptococcosis

Performance of the Colloidal Gold Immunochromatography of Cryptococcal Antigen on Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid for the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Cryptococcosis

Objective. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of the colloidal gold immunochromatography method in the detection of Cryptococcus antigen in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) for pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) diagnosis. Methods. A total of 111 patients with clinically suspected PC who wer...
