Specificity of S. pyogenes-MCDA-LFB assays 24 strains were used to evaluate the specificity of the MCDA-LFB assay. TL and CL were visible in LFB for all S. pyogenes, and only CL was observed for non-S. pyogenes. 1, Positive control (1, Streptococcus pyogenes strain ATCC19615); 2–6, Streptococcus pyogenes; 7, Streptococcus agalactiae. 8, Streptococcus pneumoniae; 9, Streptococcus mitis; 10, Streptococcus salivarius; 11, Streptococcus sanguinis; 12, Streptococcus dysgalactiae; 13, Streptococcus gordonii; 14, Streptococcus sinesis; 15, Streptococcus constellatus; 16, Streptococcus anginosus; 17, Enterococcus faecium; 18, Enterococcus raffinosus; 19, Staphylococcus aureus; 20, Staphylococcus epidermidis; 21, Pseudomonas aeruginosa; 22, Klebsiella pneumoniae; 23, Escherichia coli; 24, Candida albicans;
