The kit uses a sandwich solid phase immunochromatographic assay to detect group A rotavirus antigen in human stool specimen. Nitrocellulose-based membrane pre-coated with Goat polyclonal anti-rotavirus antibodies and the gold labeled specially-selected mouse monoclonal anti-rotavirus antibodies are used as detector materials, respectively. Add an aliquot of diluted stool sample to the sample well of the test cassette. If the sample contains rotavirus antigens, a antigen-antibody-gold complexes will form. These complexes move on the nitrocellulose membrane by capillary action toward the test line region on which rotavirus specific antibodies are immobilized. As the complexes reach the test line, they will bind to the antibody on the membrane in the form of a pink line. A second red control line will always appear in the result window to indicate that the test has been correctly performed and the test device functions properly. If rotavirus antigen is not present or lower than the detection limit of the test, only the control line will be visible. If the control line dose not developed, the test is invalid. The test results are intended to aid in the diagnosis of rotavirus infection and to monitor the effectiveness of therapeutic treatment. The test is fast and easy to operate.

25x1 tests (strip), 20x1 tests (Cassette)

Group A Rotavirus test Cassette /strip

Each cassette/strip contains a test strip with Goat polyclonal anti-rotavirus antibodies on the test region of the membrane and colored mouse monoclonal anti-rotavirus antibodies-gold conjugate pad.
