【SUMMARY】

  Influenza (commonly known as ‘flu’) is a highly contagious, acute viral infection of the respiratory tract .It is a communicable disease easily transmitted through the coughing and sneezing of aerosolized droplets containing live virus.Influenza outbreaks occur each year during the fall and winter months. Type A viruses are typically more prevalent than type B viruses and are associated with most serious influenza epidemics, while type B infections are usually milder. The gold standard of laboratory diagnosis is 14-day cell culture with one of a variety of cell lines that can support the growth of influenza virus.Cell culture has limited clinical utility, as results are obtained too late in the clinical course for effective patient intervention. Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) is a newer method that is generally more sensitive than culture with improved detection rates over culture of 2-23%. However, RT-PCR is expensive, complex and must be performed in specialized laboratories. The Influenza A+B Rapid Test strip (Swab/Nasal Aspirate) qualitatively detects the presence of Influenza A and/or Influenza B antigen in nasal swab or throat swab or nasal aspirate specimens ,providing results within 15 minutes. The test uses antibodies specific for Influenza A and Influenza B to selectively detect Influenza A and Influenza B antigen in nasal swab, throat swab or nasal aspirate specimens.

【PRINCIPLE】

  The Influenza A+B Rapid Test Strip (Swab/Nasal Aspirate) is a qualitative, lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of Influenza A and Influenza B nucleoproteins in nasal swab, throat swab or nasal aspirate specimens. In this test, antibody specific to the Influenza A and Influenza B nucleoproteins is separately coated on the test line regions of the test strip. During testing, the extracted specimen reacts with the antibody to Influenza A and/or Influenza B that are coated onto particles. The mixture migrates up the membrane to react with the antibody to Influenza A and/or Influenza B on the membrane and generate one or two colored lines in the test regions. The presence of this colored line in either or both of the test regions indicates a positive result. To serve as a procedural control, a colored line will always appear in the control region if the test has performed properly.

【STORAGE AND STABILITY】

  The kit can be stored at room temperature or refrigerated (2-30°C). The test cassette is stable through the expiration date printed on the sealed pouch. The test cassette must remain in the sealed pouch until use. DO NOT FREEZE. Do not use beyond the expiration date.
1.What is rapid test? Rapid tests, also known as rapid diagnostic tests or RDTs, are easy-to-use tests that provide quick results, usually in 20 minutes or less. Unlike most standard tests, which have to be sent to a lab, rapid tests are done and provide results at the point of care. The point of care is the place where you are getting care. It can include your provider's office, a clinic, or even your own home. 3.Advantage of rapid test? Speed: Rapid tests typically provide results in a matter of minutes or hours,compared to days or weeks for traditional laboratory tests. Convenience: Rapid tests can be performed in a variety of settings,including at home, in the field, or in a healthcare clinic. They do not require complex equipment or specialized personnel. Cost-effectiveness: Rapid tests are often less expensive than traditional laboratory tests, as they require fewer resources and do not require the same level of accuracy. Accuracy: Rapid tests are not always as accurate as traditional laboratory tests,but they can provide valuable information in emergency situations or when time is of the essence. Flexibility: Rapid tests can be used for a wide range of applications,including medical diagnosis,food safety,environmental monitoring,and drug testing.
