2019-NCov Rtk Ag Swab Test Corona 15 Min Self Test Antigen Kit
The COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test device is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative
detection of the nucleocapsid(N) protein antigen from SARS-CoV-2 in nasopharyngeal swab, oropharyngeal
swab. It provides an aid in the diagnosis of infection with 2019-nCOV.
The novel coronaviruses belong to the β genus. COVID-19 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.
The Device uses the principle of the double antibody sandwich method for detecting the nucleoprotein (N) of SARS-CoV-2.
The marker is composed of the anti-N antibody 1 labeled with colored particles. When testing, the sample was added into
the sample well and migrated to the absorbent pad by the capillary effect. If the virus exists, it will react withthe marker and
captured by the anti-N antibody 2 coated in the NC membrane. Then there is a colored line produced at the test area,
indicating a positive result. If there is no virus in the sample, the colored line will not show at the test area and it means a
negative result. Regardless of whether the virus contained in the sample, as a procedural control, a colored line will always
appear at the control area, indicating that proper volume of specimen has been added and the correct test procedure is conducted.
