[Intended
Use]
The kit is an in
vitro immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection
of Cov19, Influenza A and Influenza B virus
antigens in human nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal swab, and salvia
samples.
Cov19 is an acute
respiratory infectious disease that humans are easily infected
with. According to current epidemiological
investigations, the incubation period is 1 to 14 days, mostly 3
to 7 days. The main symptoms are: fever, fatigue, dry
cough, in a few cases can appear nasal congestion, sore throat,
myalgia and diarrhea. Influenza, often
called "the flu," is caused by the influenza virus. It is a
highly contagious viral infection of the
respiratory tract
that can be spread by coughing or sneezing. Influenza outbreaks
occur every fall and winter. There are
influenza A, B and C viruses. Influenza A viruses are more
prevalent than influenza B and Cand causes more severe
illness.
Cov19 infection and
Influenza virus infection have similar symptoms, such as fever,
cough, etc. This kit can simultaneously detect
the antigens of the three viruses and provides an easy workflow,
short turnaround time, and rapid diagnosis of
Cov19, Influenza A and influenza B virus infections using
nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal swab or salvia
samples.
[Detection
Principle]
The kit is an
immunochromatographic assay,based on double antibody sandwich
method to detect Cov19 and Influenza A/B virus
antigens. This method does not require expensive medical
instruments and consumables. After adding the
extracted specimen to the sample well on the test cassette,
Cov19, Influenza A/B virus antigens in the sample will interact
with the colloidal gold-labeled anti-Cov19 and Influenza A/B
antibodies on the conjugate pads. Then the conjugate pad will
release re-solubilized conjugate onto the
nitrocellulose
membrane. The nitrocellulose membrane (NC membrane) diffuses it
forward.
As the sample moves
along the device binding reagents situated on the nitrocellulose
membrane bind to the target at the test line. If the sample
contains a COV19 antigen, it will bind to the colloidal
goldanti-Cov19 Np monoclonal antibody, diffuse forward, and then
react with the anti-Cov19 Np monoclonal antibody immobilized on
the NC membrane detection line (COV19 Test line). Similarly, if
the specimen contains Influenza A/Influenza
B antigens, the antigens will react with antibody-coated
particles, the conjugate migrate laterally forward,
and cause a colored lines (A, B linesrespectively).
On the contrary, if
there is no Cov19, Influenza A/B virus antigen in the sample or
the concentration of the antigens is below the
minimum detection limit, there is no colored lines in the test
area and the result is considered to be
negative.
As a procedure
control, there is a quality control line (C line), this line will
always appear in the control line region, indicating
that the proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane
wicking has occurred, otherwise the test
result is invalid.
