Embodiment approach

[0086] Preferably the test kit of the present invention, such as figure 1 The one illustrated in includes two immunochromatographic detection assays 1, 2 arranged on a rack 3 equipped with a sample reservoir 4 for receiving samples. The two assays 1, 2 are arranged in contact with the sample reservoir 4 either directly or via a movably arranged isolation means 5.

[0087] The sample reservoir 4 is preferably formed from a support material. The support 3 can be manufactured from several different materials, such as plastic, paper, cardboard or combinations thereof, such as paper laminated with a plastic layer. The detection tests 1, 2 are arranged on the stand 3 in such a way that the sample receiving area of ​​each test is in contact with the sample reservoir 4 either directly or via a movably arranged isolation means 5. The isolation means 5 may be a movable barrier covering the sample receiving area on the test, a barrier isolating the reservoir from the test, etc.

Abstract

Test kit for diagnosing periodontal disease in a patient by analysing a sample from the oral cavity of the patient. The test kit comprises at least a first detection assay for detection of a first substance originating from bacteria and at least a second detection assay for detection of a second substance originating from the immune or inflammatory system of the patient. Most preferably, said first substance is a bacterial virulence product such as e.g. arg-gingipain from Prophyromonas gingivalis, and said second substance is human neutrophil elastase.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a test kit for detecting periodontal disease. The present invention also relates to methods for diagnosis and risk prediction of development of periodontal disease. Background technique [0002] Approximately 7-15% of adults in the Western world suffer from periodontitis, making it one of our most common ailments. It is a multifactorial disease and the presence of pathogenic bacteria in the pocket between teeth and gums is a necessary but not sufficient criterion. The host's inflammatory and immune systems also play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of the disease. The development of periodontitis is thought to be a chronic inflammatory response to subgingival bacteria that leads to the destruction of tooth supporting tissues. It occurs periodically and may go unnoticed in the early stages. [0003] The disruptive process is thought to be the result of a complex interplay between the host defense system and the specific ba...
