Patents #5,965,375 and #8,343,726 TECHLAB C. diff quik chek COMPLETE 3 ENTECHLAB C. diff quik chek COMPLETE INTENDED USEThe TECHLAB C. diff quik chek COMPLETE test is a rapid membrane enzyme immunoassay for the simultaneous detection of Clostridium difficile glutamate dehydrogenase antigen and toxins A and B in a single reaction well. The test detects C. difficile antigen, glutamate dehydrogenase, as a screen for the presence of C. difficile and confirms the presence of toxigenic C. difficile by detecting toxins A and B in fecal specimens from persons suspected of having C.

7 Difficile disease. The test is to be used as an aid in the diagnosis of C. difficile disease. As with other C. difficile tests, results should be considered in conjunction with the patient treatment with antibiotics, many patients develop gastrointestinal problems ranging from mild diarrhea to severe pseudomembranous colitis. Many cases of the milder forms of gastrointestinal illness and most cases of pseudomembranous colitis are caused by toxigenic strains of Clostridium difficile (1). This organism is an opportunistic anaerobic bacterium that grows in the intestine once the normal flora has been altered by the antibiotic.

8 Toxigenic strains of C. difficile carry the genes encoding the toxins while non-toxigenic strains do not carry the toxin genes. Disease onset is associated with the toxins that are produced by the toxigenic organism. The clinical symptoms associated with the disease are believed to be primarily due to toxin A, which is a tissue-damaging enterotoxin (2,3). C. difficile also produces a second toxin, designated toxin B. Toxin B, which has been referred to as the cytotoxin of the organism, is the toxin detected by the tissue culture assay currently used by many laboratories. Toxigenic C. difficile strains produce both toxins, or only toxin B (4-7).

9 The glutamate dehydrogenase of C. difficile is a good antigen marker for the organism in feces because it is produced in high amounts by all strains, toxigenic or non-toxigenic (8-10). The antigen can be detected in fecal specimens by using the C. diff quik chek COMPLETE test. A positive result in the test for the glutamate dehydrogenase of C. difficile confirms the presence of this organism in a fecal specimen; a negative result indicates the absence of the organism. A positive result in the test for toxins A and B confirms the presence of toxigenic C. OF THE TESTThe C. diff quik chek COMPLETE test uses antibodies specific for glutamate dehydrogenase and toxins A and B of C.

10 Difficile. The device contains a Reaction Window with three vertical lines of immobilized antibodies. The antigen test line ( Ag ) contains antibodies against C. difficile glutamate dehydrogenase. The control line ( C ) is a dotted line that contains anti-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) antibodies. The toxins A and B test line ( Tox ) contains antibodies against C. difficile toxins A and B. The Conjugate consists of antibodies to glutamate dehydrogenase and antibodies to toxins A and B coupled to horseradish peroxidase. To perform the test, the sample is added to a tube containing a mixture of Diluent and Conjugate.
