titleOfInvention | Rapid assessment of upper respiratory conditions |
abstract | A method for rapidly assessing upper respiratory conditions is provided. More specifically, the method involves contacting a sample obtained from the upper respiratory tract of a host with a test strip. The test strip contains an indicator that provides a broad spectrum response in the presence of bacteria, mold, yeast, or other microorganisms that is different than its response in the presence of viruses. This allows for a rapid and simple assessment as to whether the test sample is infected with a virus or some other microorganism. To help a clinician identify the proper course of treatment, it may also be desirable to obtain further information about the particular type of microorganism present. In this regard, the test strip contains any array of one or more differentiating indicators that provides a certain spectral response in the presence of different types of microorganisms. For example, the array may provide a certain spectral response in the presence of gram-negative bacteria, but a completely different spectral response in the presence of gram-positive bacteria. Likewise, the array may provide a certain spectral response in the presence of Rhinoviruses (associated with the common cold), but a different response in the presence of Influenza viruses. Detection of the spectral response provided by the indicators may thus allow for rapid differentiation between different types of microorganisms. |
