Heartworm Tick DiseaseTest Kit

Introduction

Heartworm Tick DiseaseTest Kit is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Dirofilaria immitis antigens (CHW Ag) in dog’s serum, plasma and whole blood specimen. Assay Time: 5-10 minutes

Benefits

1. One-step whole blood, serum and plasma testing.

2. Simple operation, non-professional on-site inspection.

3. The detection process is fast, and the result will be displayed in about 15 minutes.

4. The test time is less than or equal to 10 seconds, and it can detect 270 samples per hour at the fastest.

5. The detection equipment is compact, easy to carry, mobile terminal operation, cloud platform quality control.

6. The detection sensitivity is high, comparable to that of enzyme-labeled kits.

Components

• Test devices

• Droppers

• Single Buffer

• IFU

Principle

The Heartworms Test Kit is based on indirect lateral flow immunochromatography.

The test device has a test window.

The test window has an invisible T (test) area and C (control) area.

When the sample is applied to the sample hole on the device, the liquid will flow laterally across the surface of the test strip.

If there are enough Babesia antibodies in the sample, a visible T-band will appear.

The C-band should always appear after sample application, indicating valid results.

In this way, the device can accurately display the presence of Babesia antibodies in the sample.

Strage and stablity

The kit can be stored at room temperature (2-30°C). The test kit is stable through the expiration date (18 months) marked on the package label. DO NOT FREEZE. Do not store the test kit in direct sunlight.

Test Procedure

- Allow all materials, including specimen and test device, recover to 15-25℃ before running the assay.

- Take out the test card from the foil pouch and place it horizontally.

- Collect 50μL of the prepared specimen (serum, plasma or whole blood) into a vial of assay buffer and mix well. Then drop 3 drops (approx. 120μL) of the diluted sample into the sample hole “S” of the test card.

- Interpret the result in 5-10 minutes. Result after 10 minutes is considered as invalid.

INTERPRETATION OF ASSAY RESULT

- Positive (+): Whether the T line is clear or fuzzy, the "C" line and the region "T" line are present.

- Negative (-): Shows only the sharp C line. No T line.

- Invalid: no color lines in zone C. Whether the T line appears or not.
