The MP Diagnostics hCG Urine Pregnancy Test Cassette adopts the principles of double antibody sandwich method and immunochromatography to test the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in the urine. The membrane is pre-coated with anti-hCG antibodies in the test region (T) and anti-mouse antibodies in the control region (C). During testing, the urine sample reacts with the colored conjugate (mouse anti-hCG antibody colloidal gold conjugate) which has been pre-coated on the test strip. The mixture then migrates upward on the membrane to react with anti-hCG antibodies in the test region.
