PRINCIPLES
The Ehrlichia Antibody 2.0 Rapid Test is based on sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay.
MATERAILS PRAVIDED
1. Test Devices: 10 pieces test devices individually pouched.
2. Assay diluent in tube:10 units
3. Disposable swab:10 pcs
4. Disposable dropper cap:10 units
5. Work station:1 unit
6. Instructions For Use: 1 copy attached.
TEST PROCEDURE
1.Allow all materials, including specimen and test device, recover to 15-25ºC before running the assay.
2.Take out the test card from the foil pouch and place it horizontally.
3.Using the capillary dropper to place 10μL of the prepared specimen into the sample hole “S” of the test device. Then drop 3 drops (approx. 80μL) of the assay 4.buffer into the sample hole immediately.
5.Interpret the result in 5-10 minutes. Result after 10 minutes is considered as invalid.
INTERPRETATION OF THE RESULT
Positive result:
Red bands appear in both the testline(T) and the control line(C).
Negative result:
A red band will only appear in the control line(C) on the result window.
Invalid Result: if there is no red band in the control line(C),the result is invalid. A re-test is recommended.
