[SUMMARY]
The novel coronaviruses (SARS-CoV-2) belong to the β genus. is an acute respiratory infectious disease. People are generally susceptible. Currently, the patients infected by the novel coronavirus are the main source of infection; asymptomatic infected people can also be an infectious source. Based on the current epidemiological investigation, the incubation period is 1 to 14 days, mostly 3 to 7 days. The main manifestations include fever, fatigue and dry cough. Nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, myalgia and diarrhea are found in a few cases.
[PRINCIPLE]
The Antigen Rapid Test Cassette (Saliva) is a lateral flow immunoassay based on the principle of the double-antibody sandwich
[SPECIMEN COLLECTION AND PREPARATION]
DO NOT place anything in the mouth including food, drink, gum or tobacco products for at least 30 minutes prior to collection.
Use the collection tube and saliva collector to collect saliva. Insert the saliva collector into the collection tube, then put the saliva collector close to lips and let the saliva flow into the collection tube. The volume of saliva needs to be at the scale mark (approx.300μL). If the volume of saliva is too much, use a dropper to remove the excess saliva until the final solution at the scale mark (approx. 300μL).
[INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS]
technique. SARS-CoV-2
nucleocapsid
protein monoclonal
antibody conjugated with color microparticles is used as detector and sprayed on conjugation pad. During the test, SARS-CoV-2 antigen in the specimen interacts with SARS-CoV-2 antibody conjugated with color microparticles making antigen-antibody labeled complex. This complex migrates on the membrane via capillary action until the test line, where it will be captured by the pre-coated SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein monoclonal antibody. A colored test line (T) would be visible in the result window if SARS-CoV-2 antigens are present in the specimen. Absence of the T line suggests a negative result. The control line (C) is used for procedural control, and should always appear if the test procedure is performed properly.
[WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]
Specimen Transport and Storage
Freshly collected specimens should be processed as soon as possible, but no later than one hour after specimen collection.
[TEST PROCEDURE]
· For in vitro diagnostic use only.
· For healthcare professionals and individuals trained in point of care settings.
· Do not use this product as the sole basis to diagnose or exclude
Note: Allow the test cassettes, reagents and specimens to equilibrate to room temperature (15-30℃ or 59-86℉) prior to testing.
1. Place the collection tube with saliva collector which has saliva in the work station. Unscrew the lid of an extraction reagent. Add all of the extraction reagents into the collection tube.
