Covid-19 Rapid Antigen Test Kit - Saliva Self-test
Principle of the procedure
The SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Test Kit (GICA) is a colloidal gold enhanced double antibody sandwich immunoassay for the qualitative determination of Nucleocapsid (N) Protein of SARS-CoV-2 virus in human saliva samples.
SARS-CoV-2 antibody is immobilized in the test region on nitrocellulose membrane. If the specimen contains SARS-CoV-2 antigen, during the assay specimen is allowed to react with the colored conjugate (SARS-CoV-2 antibody-colloidal gold conjugate); the mixture then migrates chromatographically on the membrane by the capillary action. An SARS-CoV-2 positive specimen produces a distinct color band in the test region, formed by the specific antibody antigen colored conjugate complex "(Au-SARS-CoV-2-Ab)-(SARS-CoV-2-Ag)-(SARS-CoV-2-Ab)". Absence of this colored band in the test region suggests a negative result. A colored band always appears in the control region serving as procedural control regardless of the specimen contains SARS-CoV-2 or not.
