Product Details

Fungitell STAT® offers the convenience of testing patient samples with a minimal laboratory footprint. Test from 1-7 samples in a single run using the Lab Kinetics Incubating 8-well Tube Reader and Beta Glucan Analytics® (BGA) software.

Fungitell STAT® presents qualitative information concerning patient serum (1→3)-β-D-glucan levels, using an index value format that allows the rapid stratification of patients as diagnostically positive, negative, or indeterminate relative to serum (1→3)-β-D-glucan burden.

Materials Supplied With The Kit
  • Fungitell STAT® Reagent, a lyophilized (1→3)-β-D-glucan specific LAL (10 vials)
  • Fungitell STAT® Glucan Standard (5 vials), with the (1→3)-β-D-glucan content stated on the labeling
  • Instructions For Use
  • Quick visual guide
Storage Conditions

Store all reagents, as supplied, at 2–8°C in the dark. Fungitell STAT® Reagent and Fungitell STAT® Standard should be used within 1 hour following reconstitution.

Materials Required But Not Supplied

All materials and glassware must be free of interfering glucans. Glassware must be dry-heat depyrogenated for at least 7 hours at a minimum of 235°C (or a validated equivalent) to be considered suitable for use.

  • Pipettes capable of delivering 20–200 μL and 100–1000 μL volumes
  • Sterile, glucan-free, screw-cap storage tubes for aliquoting samples (most tubes that are certified to be RNAse-, DNAse-, and pyrogen-free are free of interfering levels of (1→3)-β-D-glucan).
  • Parafilm®
  • BG Analytics® is designed to be compatible with any barcode scanner configured in USB HID Points of Sale scanner mode. For example, Honeywell healthcare corded barcode scanners Honeywell PN1950HHD and Honeywell 1950HSR are compatible. Refer to the barcode scanner’s user manual for proper scanning techniques.
