## Indications for use
ORTHO T. cruzi ELISA Test System is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the in vitro qualitative detection of antibodies (Immunoglobulin G) to Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) in human adult serum (glass, plastic, or serum separator tubes) and plasma (EDTA, lithium heparin or citrate) using whole-cell lysate antigens. Reactive assay results are presumptive evidence of past infection, and in conjunction with other serological and clinical information, may be used for the laboratory diagnosis of individuals with Chagas' disease. Definitive diagnosis of an acute phase of infection (including acute congenital infection) must be made by alternate methods, e.g., hemoculture, blood smear. This test is not intended for use on samples of cord blood or screening blood or plasma donors.
