A number of Mycoplasma pneumoniae ELISA kits are commercially available to enhance your infectious disease research. Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a species of pathogenic bacteria that cause pneumonia, bronchitis, and respiratory disease in humans. M. pneumonia colonizes the respiratory tract epithelium and adheres to host cells. It has the ability to penetrate the mucosal layer and fuse with cells, offering protection from the host immune system. ELISA kits for detecting antigens or serum antibodies against Mycoplasma pneumoniae typically include prepackaged pre-coated strips or microplates, diluents, and detection antibodies.
