HP Ag Test

Helicobacter pylori Antigen Rapid Test (HP Ag)

Catalog No.: JCA207D

Product Information

¤  INTENDED USE

The Helicobacter pylori Antigen Rapid Test is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Helicobacter pylori antigen (HP Ag) in dog’s feces specimen.

Assay Time:  5-10 minutes

Specimen:  feces

¤  TEST PROCEDURE

- Collect dog’s fresh feces with the cotton swab from dog’s anus or from the ground (the collection amount should not be too much, appropriate to cover 1 / 3 to 2 / 3 of the cotton swab head).  

- Insert the swab into the provided assay buffer tube. Agitates it to get efficient sample extraction. 

- Take out the test device from the foil pouch and place it horizontally.

- Suck the treated sample extraction from the assay buffer tube and place 3 drops into the sample hole “S” of the test device.

- Interpret the result in 5-10 minutes. Result after 10 minutes is considered as invalid.

¤  INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS

- Positive (+): The presence of both “C” line and zone “T” line, no matter T line is clear or vague.

- Negative (-): Only clear C line appear. No T line.

- Invalid: No colored line appears in C zone. No matter if T line appears.

¤  PRINCIPLE

The Helicobacter pylori Antigen Rapid Test is based on sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. The test device has a testing window for the observation of assay running and result reading. The testing window has an invisible T (test) zone and a C (control) zone before running the assay. When the treated sample was applied into the sample hole on the device, the liquid will laterally flow through the surface of the test strip and react with the pre-coated monoclonal antibodies. If there is HP antigen in the specimen, a visible T line will appear. The C line should always appear after a sample is applied, which indicates a valid result. By this means, the device can accurately indicate the presence of Helicobacter pylori antigen in the specimen.
