Clinical Significance
(Time-resolved Fluorescence lmmunochromatographic Assay)
PCT is a specific indicator of severe bacterial inflammation and fungal infection, and it is also a reliable indicator of sepsis and multiple organ failure related to inflammatory activity. If given enough stimulation, immunosuppressed patients will develop PCT. PCT is not only an acute indi-cator for differential diagnosis, but also a parameter for monitoring inflammatory activity..
