Rapid Strep A Test Strip. Box of 50 units
Rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Strep A antigens from human throat swab samples to assist in the diagnosis of Group A streptococcal infection.
Description
Optical immunoassay technology allows for greater sensitivity and fewer false negative results without affecting specificity.
If there are Group A streptococci in the sample, a visible blue test line will appear to indicate a positive result, and a red control line will also appear to indicate that the test is valid.
Technical specifications:
- Relative sensitivity: 95.1% (95%CI:*89.6-98.2%).
- Relative specificity: 97.8% (95%CI:*95.8-99%).
- Overall accuracy: 97.1% ( 95%CI:*95.3-98.4%).
Includes:
- 50 Test strips.
- 50 Extraction tubes.
- 50 Sterile swabs.
- 1 Workstation.
- 1 Extraction reagent 1 (2M NaNO2).
- 1 Extraction reagent 2 (0.027M citric acid).
- Positive control (Nonviable Strep A; 0.01% Proclin300).
- Negative control (Nonviable Strep C; 0.01% Proclin300).
