The Sofia Lyme FIA employs immunofluorescence for the rapid differential detection of human IgM and IgG antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi from serum and plasma specimens from patients suspected of B. burgdorferi infection. This qualitative test is intended for use as an aid in diagnosis of Lyme disease. A negative result does not preclude infection with B. burgdorferi. All positive results for IgM and/or 1gG should be further tested by a corresponding second-tier western blot assay. Test results are to be used in conjunction with information obtained from the patient’s clinical evaluation and other diagnostic procedures.

The Sofia Lyme FIA may be used with Sofia or Sofia 2.

Sofia 2 Campylobacter FIA employs immunofluorescence for the rapid qualitative detection of a Campylobacter-specific antigen in human fecal specimens. Sofia 2 Campylobacter FIA is designed to detect C. jejuni, C. coli, C. lari and C. upsaliensis from patients with signs and symptoms of gastroenteritis. The test is intended for use with preserved fecal specimens in transport media and unpreserved fecal specimens. Test results should be considered in conjunction with clinical findings and patient history.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
