The COVID-19 and M.pneumoniae IgG Combo Rapid Test is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies to SARS-COV-2 and Mycoplasma pneumoniae in human whole blood, serum or plasma specimen.
【SUMMARY】
The novel coronaviruses belong to the β genus. COVID-19 is an acute respiratory infectious disease. People are generally susceptible. Currently, the patients infected by the novel coronavirus are the main source of infection; asymptomatic infected people can also be an infectious source. Based on the current epidemiological investigation, the incubation period is 1 to 14 days, mostly 3 to 7 days. The main manifestations include fever, fatigue and dry cough. Nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, myalgia and diarrhea are found in a few cases.
Mycoplasma pneumoniae is the causative agent of respiratory tract infectious diseases and complication of other systems. There will be a symptom with headache, fever, dry cough, and muscle pain. People of all age groups can be infected while youth, middle-aged and children under 4 years old have a higher infection rate. 30% of the infected population may have a whole lung infection.
【DIRECTIONS FOR USE】
Allow the test, specimen, buffer and/or controls to reach room temperature (15-30°C) prior to testing.
1. Remove the test from the foil pouch and use it within one hour. Best results will be obtained if the test is performed immediately after opening the foil pouch.
2. Place the test on a clean and level surface.
For Serum or Plasma specimen:
Transfer 10μL of serum or plasma to each of the specimen well (S) with a dropper or pipette, then add 2 drops of buffer (approximately 80 μL), and start the timer.
For Whole Blood specimen:
Transfer 20μL of whole blood to each of the sample well(S) with a dropper or pipette, then add 2 drops of buffer (approximately 80 μL), and start the timer.
3. Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. Read results at 10 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 20 minutes.
Note: It is suggested not to use the buffer, beyond 6 months after opening the vial.
