Hiv Saliva Test Hiv Test Kit Rapid Hiv Test

Product Description Medical equipment hiv saliva test for medical use
Intended usage

Diagnostic Kit for Antibody to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (Colloidal Gold) is mainly used for in vitro qualitative detection of antibodies to HIV-1, HIV-2 in human whole blood, serum or plasma, is to aid in clinical diagnosis of HIV infection.

HIV Introduction

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is the causative agent of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The normal method of detecting infection with HIV is by observing the presence of antibodies to the virus by the ELlSA method, followed by confirmation with the Western Blot Test. Most manufacturers have produced the ELlSA test in a micro titer plate format which requires sophisticated and expensive equipment to obtain a result. Also, it requires highly skilled personnel to perform the test. In many developing world countries the equipment and staff to run these sophisticated tests are limited, and as a result infected blood is still being used for transfusions and many people remain undiagnosed, Labtub® Diagnostic Kit for antibody to Human immunodeficiency Virus (Colloidal Gold) is a qualitative, simple, manual, visual and robust lest that can be used to quickly lest blood for HIV antibodies.

Detection principle

The kit with technology of colloidal gold chromatographic immunoassay, uses double antigen sandwich method for the qualitative detection of antibodies to HIV-1, HIV-2 in human whole blood, serum or plasma. In the detection, when the specimen contains HIV-1 or HIV-2 antibodies, it will form a complex with gold HIV-1 or HIV-2 recombinant antigen coated on glass fibers, the complex was moved along nitrocellulose filter to testing region (T) by chromatography, then the complex is captured by HIV-1 or HIV-2 recombinant antigen coated with testing region (T) on the nitrocellulose filter, a red line appears inside the testing region (T). On the contrary, when the specimen does not contain HIV-1 or HIV-2 antibodies or below the minimum detecting limitation, there is no red line appears inside the testing region (T). The controlling region (C) always appears a red line no matter the specimen contains HIV-1 or HIV-2 antibodies or not.

Product performance indicators1. Sensitivity
In the internal laboratory study, 100 tests of whole blood (including 30 tests of fingertip blood), 100 tests of serum, 100 tests of plasma were detected by ELA and Western Blot for positive, those samples' detection rate is 100% by the kit. ELAWestern Blot70 tests of whole blood
