Intended Use:

Infections resulting from Hepatitis B Virus bring us a fearful public hygiene problem. Maternal-neonatal transmission, sexual transmission and blood transmission are three main transmission routes. The earlier the infectious antigens are discovered, the more effectively the transmission of disease is decreased. This product is used for the qualitative detection of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) in serum/plasma samples. It can be used to screen for HBsAg in the scene for blood donation and detect HBsAg before clinical emergency operation.

The Test Strips contain:

Sample pad, colloidal gold pad (sprayed by colloidal gold-labelled sAb1), chromatography membrane (T-line coated with sAb2, C-line coated with IgG), absorbent paper and lining.

Kit contains:

1. Foil bag contains one test card, one pipette and one desiccant      25

2. Manual     1

Storage Requirements:

1. Store the strip at 4oC~30oC within 12 months.

2. Use the test card within 1 hour once the foil bag is opened.

Sample Material and Volume:

Serum/plasma 60 μl

Specimen Collection and Preparation:

1. A serum or plasma specimen is required for testing by this product.

2. The plasma specimen is suggested to use heparin as anticoagulant.

3. Transport specimens at room temperature or chilledly and avoid extreme temperatures.

4. It is recommended to avoid using severely hemolyzed specimens whenever possible. If a specimen appears to be severely hemolyzed, another specimen should be obtained and tested.

5. Test blood specimens on the strips immediately or within 6 hours after collected, if testing can’t be completed within 6 hours, the serum or plasma specimen can be stored at -20oC until it can be tested.

6. The blood specimens must be restored to room temperature before testing.

Test Procedure:

1. Open the pouch and label the strip with the patient specimen number.

2. Use pipette to transfer blood from a sample collection tube.

3. Release the bulb slowly, dropping 2 to 3 drops (or 60 μl) of the sample.

4. Read the results within 10-20 mins.
