APPLICATION
The New Swine Flu (G4 EA H1N1) Antigen Rapid Test is an in vitro
diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of New Swine
influenza virus (G4 EA H1N1) in Nasal swab samples, using the rapid
immunochromatographic method.
PRINCIPLE
The New Swine Flu (G4 EA H1N1) Antigen Rapid Test is a qualitative,
lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of New Swine Flu virus
(G4 EA H1N1) in swine’s Nasal swab samples. In this test, antibody
specific to the New Swine Flu is coated on the test line region of
the test cassette. During testing, the extracted specimen reacts
with the antibody to New Swine Flu that is coated onto particles.
The mixture migrates up the membrane to react with the antibody to
New Swine Flu on the membrane and generate one colored line in the
test region. The presence of this colored line in test region
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.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Allow the test, specimen, extraction buffer to equilibrate to room
temperature (15-30 °C) 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 immediately after opening the foil pouch.
2. Collect nasal swabs from acute hyperthermia and untreated sick
pigs. The swab should be inserted into the nostril and rotated on
the inner wall 5-10 times to collect virus as much as possible.
Withdraw the sterile nasal swab from the nostril.
3. Remove the cover of the tube containing the extraction buffer.
See illustration 1. Place the tube in the workstation.Place the
swab specimen in the extraction tube. Rotate the swab for
approximately 10 seconds while pressing the head against the inside
of the tube to release the antigen in the swab. See illustration 2.
4. Remove the swab while squeezing the swab head against the inside
of the extraction tube as remove it to expel as much liquid as
possible from the swab. Discard the swab in accordance with local
biohazard waste disposal protocol. See illustration 3.
5. Tighten the extraction tube cap on top of the extraction tube.
Hold the specimen collection tube upright then unscrew the cap of
the specimen collection tube. See illustration 4.
6. Invert the specimen collection tube and add 3 drops of the
solution (approx.120 μL) to the sample well and then start the
timer.
7. Read the result at 15 minutes. Do not interpret the result after
20 minutes.
PRECAUTIONS
Do not use after expiration date.
Handle all specimens as if they contain infectious agents. Observe
established precautions against microbiological hazards throughout
testing and follow the standard procedures for proper disposal of
specimens.
Wear disposable gloves and eye protection when specimens are being
tested.
Humidity and temperature can adversely affect results.
Do not remove test cassette from its pouch until immediately before
use.
Do not reuse the test kit.
Do not mix components from different lot and different products.
