Clostridioides difficile glutamate dehydrogenase and toxins A+B [Presence] in Stool by Rapid immunoassay

C diff GDH + toxins A+B Stl Ql IA.rapid

Definition

The detection of both C. difficile antigen (glutamate dehydrogenase, GDH) and toxins A and B in a stool specimen. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, Alere's C. diff Quik Chek Complete(R), a rapid immunoassay that screens for the presence of C. difficile GDH antigens and confirms the presence of toxigenic C. difficile by detection of toxins A and B. The Alere Quick Chek Complete assay takes 25 minutes to complete, including 15 minutes for specimen incubation and 10 minutes for reaction with substrate.
