Typhoid test kit TYP0085

IgGIgMserum

The Typhoid IgG/IgM Rapid Test Kit (Serum/Plasma/Whole Blood) is intended to be used as a screening test and as an aid in the diagnosis of infection with S. typhi. Any reactive specimen with the Typhoid IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device (Serum/Plasma/Whole Blood) must be confirmed with alternative testing method(s). For professional use only. For in vitro diagnostic use only. Principle The Typhoid IgG/IgM Rapid Test Kit (Serum/Plasma/Whole Blood) is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay. The test cassette consists of: A burgundy colored conjugate pad containing recombinant Typhoid H antigen and O antigenconjugated with colloid gold conjugates and rabbit IgG-gold conjugates, A nitrocellulose membrane strip containing two test bands (IgG and IgM bands) and a control band (C band). The M band is pre-coated with monoclonal anti-human IgM for the detection of IgM anti-Typhoid, G band is pre-coated with reagents for the detection of IgG anti-Typhoid, and the C band is pre-coated with goat anti rabbit IgG.When an adequate volume of test specimen is dispensed into the sample well of the test cassette, the specimen migrates by capillary action across the cassette. Anti-Typhoid IgM if present in the specimen will bind to the Typhoid conjugates. The immunocomplex is then captured on the membrane by the precoated anti-human IgM antibody, forming a burgundy colored M band, indicating a Typhoid IgM positive test result. Anti-Typhoid IgG if present in the specimen will bind to the Typhoid conjugates. The immunocomplex is then captured by the pre-coated reagents on the membrane, forming a burgundy colored G band, indicating a Typhoid IgG positive test result.
