Clinical Significance: | Immunochemical assay of specific antibodies to streptococcal metabolites provides valuable information regarding a past streptococcal infection (rheumatic fever, scarlet fever, tonsillitis, glomerulonephritis, etc.). Although rheumatic fever has become more rare in some regions, the increase in mild or sub-clinical cases equires more detailed evaluations by means of serological methods. Among the assays for antibodies to various streptococcal exoenzymes, anti-streptolysin-O (ASO) testing should be given prominence as ASO is a sensitive parameter which has been found to be elevated in 80 to 85% of the cases. This antibody response is first noted in the second or third week after an acute episode and peaks at about four to five weeks |
