COVID-19 IgG/IgM Test kit(Colloidal Gold Method)is a solid phase immunochromatographic assay for the rapid, qualitative and differential detection of IgG and IgM antibodies to Novel Coronavirusi in human whole blood, serum or plasma. This test provides only a preliminary test result. Therefore, any reactive specimen with the COVID-19 IgG/IgM Test kit(Colloidal Gold Method) must be confirmed with alternative testing method(s) and clinical findings.

INTRODUCTION
The novel coronaviruses belong to the β genus. COVID-19 is an acute respiratory infectious disease. People are generally susceptible. Currently, the patients infected by the novel coronavirus are the main source of infection; asymptomatic infected people can also be an infectious source. Based on the current epidemiological investigation, the incubation period is 1 to 14 days, mostly 3 to 7 days. The main manifestations include fever, fatigue and dry cough. Nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, myalgia and diarrhea are found in a few cases.
PRINCIPLE
The COVID-19 IgG/IgM Test kit(Colloidal Gold Method)uses the principle of colloidal gold immunochromatography. The test uses anti-human IgM antibody (test line IgM), anti-human IgG (test line IgG) and goat anti-mouse IgG (control line C) immobilised on a nitrocellulose strip. The burgundy colored conjugate pad contains colloidal gold conjugated to recombinant COVID-19 antigens conjugated with colloid gold (COVID-19 conjugates). When a specimen followed by assay buffer is added to the sample well, IgM &/or IgG antibodies if present,
