Instructions for the use of the rapid test for the detection of Toxoplasma Ag Test
1. Purpose
Immunochromatographic express test is intended for one-stage qualitative detection of Toxoplasma antigen (Toxo Ag) in feces or blood serum.
When analyzing: 5-10 minutes
2. Principle of operation
The device has an investigated window where the invisible T test zone and C control zone are located. When the test sample is introduced into the sample well, the liquid will move laterally on the surface of the test. If antigen is present in the test sample, a colored strip will appear in the T test zone. A colored strip in the C control zone should always appear after the sample has been added, which indicates the correctness of the analysis.
3. Composition of the set
– 1 foil bag (containing the cassette, pipette, desiccant)
– 1 vial with the assay buffer
– 1 centrifuge tube
– Instruction
4. Procedure for the analysis
Remove the cassette from the bag and place it horizontally.
Collect fresh animal faeces with a cotton swab.
Insert the swab into the Assay Buffer vial, and let it sit for a minute to allow the sample to be extracted. Using a pipette, add 3 drops of the test sample to the sample window.
If using blood serum, dilute it 1: 3 with sample buffer, and add 3 drops into the sample window.
Record results after 5-10 minutes. The result after the passage of 10 minutes is not valid.
5. Interpretation of results
Positive: the presence of two colored lines, both in the C control zone and in the T test zone, and regardless of the color intensity of the test line, the test result will be considered positive.
Negative: the presence of one colored line in the C control zone.
Not valid: no colored line in the C control zone. Even if there is a colored line in the T test area.
