| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a rapid test for detecting pathogen material, in particular in order to support the diagnosis of sepsis, and to a kit and to a device for performing a sepsis test. In order to provide a rapid test and a device (1) that make it possible to detect sepsis early, to detect sepsis pathogens, to determine the pathogenic status thereof, or to characterize the causative germ in more detail, the device (1) according to the invention comprises at least one device (1) for performing a sepsis test, in particular in the form of a rapid test, which device comprises at least one detection field (7) having detection molecules (8), which specifically bind a quorum sensing target molecule (9) or a quorum-sensing-associated target molecule (10). The rapid test according to the invention comprises the steps of bringing a sample (6) and at least one detection molecule (8) in contact, which detection molecule specifically binds a quorum sensing target molecule (9) or a quorum-sensing-associated target molecule (10), under conditions that enable the target molecule (9, 10) to bond to the at least one detection molecule (8); and checking if a target molecule (9, 10) has bonded to the at least one detection molecule (8). |
