The BinaxNOW pneumococcal antigen test: An adjunct for diagnosis of pneumococcal bacteraemia

Background: Culture remains the diagnostic standard for Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteraemia but is limited by time to identification, prior antibiotics and bacterial autolysis. Culture-independent methods for detecting S. pneumoniae include PCR and antigen tests. We evaluated an antigen test on blo...
