Testsea Disease Test Malaria Ag p.f/p.v Tri-line Test
Product Detail:
- Sample Type:
- Whole blood (fingerstick or venipuncture blood sample).
- Detection Time:
- 15-20 minutes (results should be interpreted within 20 minutes; results after this period are invalid).
- Sensitivity and Specificity:
- Sensitivity: Typically > 90% for detecting both P.f. and P.v. infections.
- Specificity: Typically > 95% for both P.f. and P.v. detection.
- Storage Conditions:
- Store between 4°C and 30°C, away from direct sunlight.
- Do not freeze.
- Shelf life typically ranges from 12 to 24 months, depending on the manufacturer's instructions.
- Result Interpretation:
- Positive Result:
- Three lines visible:
- C (Control) line (indicates the test is valid).
- P.f. line (if Plasmodium falciparum antigens are detected).
- P.v. line (if Plasmodium vivax antigens are detected).
- The presence of the P.f. and/or P.v. lines indicates infection with the respective species of malaria.
- Three lines visible:
- Positive Result:
Principle:
Immunochromatographic Assay:
The test cassette contains immobilized monoclonal antibodies specific for Plasmodium antigens (e.g., HRP-2 for P.f. and pLDH for P.v.).
- When blood is applied to the test, if malaria antigens are present, they will bind to the gold-conjugated antibodies in the sample, which will move along the test membrane by capillary action.
- If the Plasmodium falciparum antigen is detected, a colored line will form at the P.f. line.
- If the Plasmodium vivax antigen is detected, a colored line will form at the P.v. line.
- The Control line (C) ensures the test is functioning properly and indicates the validity of the test.

5.Carefully remove the swab without touching the tip.Insert the entire tip of the swab 2 to 3 cm into the right nostril.Note the breaking point of the nasal swab.You can feel this with your fingers when inserting the nasal swab or check it in the mimnor. Rub the inside of the nostril in circular movements 5 times for at least 15 seconds,Now take the same nasal swab and insert it into the other nostril.Swab the inside of the nostril in a circular motion 5 times for at least 15 seconds. Please perform the test directly with the sample and do not
|
6.Place the swab in the extraction tube.Rotate the swab for about 10 seconds,Rotate the swab against the extraction tube,pressing the head of the swab against the inside of the tube while squeezing the sides of the tube to release as much liquid as possible from the swab. |
7. Take out the swab from the package without touching the padding. |
8.Mix thoroughly by flicking the bottom of the tube.Place 3 drops of the sample vertically into the sample well of the test cassette.Read the result after 15 minutes. Note:Read the result within 20 minutes.Otherwise,are petition of the test is recommended. |
