What is Anti Streptolysin O (ASO) (rapid)?

Anti Streptolysin O (ASO) (rapid) helps doctors identify the specific cause of a fever or systemic illness. Rather than treating symptoms blindly, this test gives objective evidence of the infecting organism so targeted therapy can begin promptly.

What does Anti Streptolysin O (ASO) (rapid) measure?

The Anti Streptolysin O (ASO) rapid test measures antibodies your immune system makes against streptolysin O, a toxin produced by group A streptococcus bacteria. These antibodies indicate a recent or past strep infection rather than current bacteria. The test helps identify whether symptoms or complications are likely linked to a recent strep infection. A standard blood, urine, or tissue sample is collected depending on the test type. The sample is analysed in a certified laboratory using validated techniques. Each value is compared to a reference range derived from healthy populations, and any value outside this range is flagged for review.

What do the results of Anti Streptolysin O (ASO) (rapid) mean?

Results are reported as numerical values alongside the laboratory's reference range for your age and gender. A value within the range is considered normal.
