The test cassette will detect the presence of the human hormone hCG if it is present in a concentration of 25 mIU/ml or higher.
HCG is a glycopeptide hormone secreted by the placenta during pregnancy.
- The presence and rapid increase in hCG levels in a woman's urine makes it a good indicator of pregnancy
- Typically, hCG concentrations in urine are less than 25 mIU/ml before the first 7-10 days after conception
- Conception significantly increases hCG levels, which peak between the eighth and eleventh weeks of pregnancy
- This rapid test is an immunochromatographic assay that uses conventional and monoclonal antibodies to selectively identify hCG in urine
- The immunochromatographic device contains a unique combination of a colored conjugate and membrane-bound monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies used to reproduce distinctive visual lines that indicate elevated levels of hCG (?25 mIU/ml) in the urine specimen in approximately 5 minutes
During the test procedure, the liquid sample moves across the absorbent pad.
If hCG is present, the labeled antibody-colored compound attaches to it, forming an antibody-antigen complex.
