Feature:
Coronaviruses are enveloped RNA viruses that are distributed broadly among humans, other mammals, and birds and that cause respiratory, enteric, hepatic, and neurologic diseases. Seven coronavirus species are known to cause human disease. Four viruses-229E, OC43, NL63, and HKU1-are prevalent and typically cause common cold symptopms in immunocompetent individuals.4 The three other strains-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and 2019 Novel Coronavirus(COVID-19)-are zoonotic in origin and have been linked to sometimes fatal illness. LGG and LGM antibodies to 2019 Novel Coronavirus can be detected with 2-3 weeks after exposure. IgG remains positive, but the antibody level drops overtime.
Test Procedure:
Strip:
Allow test strip, specimen, buffer and/or controls to equilibrate to room temperature(15~30℃) prior to testing.
1.Remove the test strip from the sealed foil pouch and use it as soon as possible. Best results will be obtained if the assay is performed within one hour.
2.Place the test trip on a clean and level surface. Add 5uL of whole blood/serum/plasma to the sample pad of the test trip, than add 2 drops(about 80uL) of sample buffer immediately.
3.Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. The result should be read at 10 minutes. Positive results may be visible as soon as 2 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 15 minutes.
Cassette:
Allow test cassette, specimen, buffer and/or controls to equilibrate to room temperature(15~30℃) prior to testing.
1.Remove the test cassette from the sealed foil pouch and use it as soon as possible. Best results will be obtained if the assay is performed within one hour.
2.Place the test device on a clean and level surface. Add 5uL of whole blood/serum/plasma to the specimen well(s) of the test device, than add 2 drops(about 80uL) of sample buffer to the buffer well(B) immediately.
3.Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. The result should be read at 10 minutes. Positive results may be visible as soon as 2 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 15 minutes.
