One Step Test for hs-CRP (Colloidal Gold)

Detailed Product Description

One Step Test for hs-CRP (Colloidal Gold) applies colloidal gold immunochromatography to detect high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in serum, plasma and whole blood samples semi-quantitatively or quantitatively.

The Test Strips contain:

Sample pad, colloidal gold pad (sprayed by colloidal gold-labelled hs-CRP monoclonal antibody), chromatography membrane (T-line coated with hs-CRP monoclonal antibody, C-line coated with IgG), absorbent paper and lining.

Kit contains:

1. Foil Bag contains one test card, one pipette and one desiccant10 or 25

2. Manual1

3. Standard colorimetric card1

4. Sample dilution buffer10 or 25

Matching Equipment:

FIA8000 Series Quantitative Immunoassay Analyzer

Storage Requirements:

1. Store the strip at 4~30oC within 12 months.

2. Use the test card within 1 hour once the foil bag is opened.

Sample Material and Volume:

Serum/plasma/whole blood 10 l

Specimen Collection and Preparation:

1. A serum, plasma or whole blood specimen is required for testing by this product.

2. The plasma specimen is suggested to use heparin as anticoagulant.

3. Transport specimens at room temperature or chilledly and avoid extreme temperatures.

4. It is recommended to avoid using severely hemolyzed specimens whenever possible. If a specimen appears to be severely hemolyzed, another specimen should be obtained and tested.

5. The serum or plasma specimen (2~8oC) should be tested within 7 days. If the testing can’t be completed within 7 days, the serum or plasma specimen should be stored at -20oC (half a year at most) until testing. The whole blood specimen (2~8oC) is suggested to be tested within 3 days.

6. The blood specimens must be restored to room temperature before testing.

Test Procedure:

1. Restore the test card and the blood specimen to room temperature (20~25oC better). 2. Open the pouch and label the strip with the patient specimen number.

3. Drop 10 l whole blood (serum or plasma) to the sample dilution buffer in the tube, and mix gently and thoroughly.

4. Drop 120 l mixed solution to the sample port of the test card.

5. Referring to the standard colorimetric card, get the semi-quantitative result by eye after 5~10 mins, or read the quantitative result with the matching equipment.
