Medical devices mycoplasma pneumoniae mp rapid test

Mycoplasma pneumoniae is spread through respiratory droplet transmission and can cause atypical pneumonia, bronchitis etc. Various studies suggest that it causes 10% of all pneumonia in adults and 20%-25% percentage of pneumonia in children. Rapid MP Strip is a direct test for the qualitative detection of MP antibodies.

It is based on the principle of capturing method, which employs MP recombinant antigen and anti-human polyclonal antibody to selectively identify MP antibody in serum.

When the MP to be seized samples containing antibodies, the monoclonal antibody labeled with gold to form the first complex, and move forward under the action of the chromatography, and then reaction with the coating antigen, there a visible line test line T, as positive results; unreacted markers continue to move forward with anti-mouse antibodies, forming a line control line C. If the test line does not appear, the result is negative.

Serum/plasma samples:

Fresh serum or plasma samples can be used. No special patient preparation required. Care should be taken to ensure blood full clotting and any visible particulate matter in the sample should be removed by centrifugation or filtration. Avoid the use of highly hemolytic, turbid, microorganism contaminated samples or samples stored for over 30days at 2-8°C. Store samples at 2-8°C. Samples not required for assay within 3 days should be

stored frozen (-20°C or lower). Avoid sample deterioration by multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Please read the instruction carefully. If the not ready, do not tear foil bag

1. 1.Open the sealed foil pouch bag, take out the cassette and put on the table.
2. 2.Use dropper adds 1 drop (10ul) serum into the hole and then add 2 drops (100 ul) Specimen Buffer into the hole and read results within 15-20 minutes.
3. 3.Wait for 15-20 minutes and read result. Read result after 20 minutes may give erroneous results.
