Serology reagents intended to detect antigens to strains of Histoplasma capsulatum, a yeast-like species of imperfect fungi of the family Moniliaceae. Histoplasma capsulatum infection (histoplasmosis) is frequently asymptomatic, but can cause an influenza-like illness or pneumonia. These fungi can affect the lungs, meninges, heart, and other organs in immunocompromised patients.
