Healgen's Covid-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test Kit is one of 3 that have been FDA authorized for emergency use.
 
Advantages:
	
A much easier and faster way to screen for COVID-19:	
		
Does not require lab intervention.
		
Can be performed at patient's location, under physical or remote health care professional supervision.
	
	
	
RDTs can improve the screening process by limiting PCR tests only to symptomatic patients that tested negative with the RDT, freeing health care professionals and health department resources.
	
RDTs help prevent the spread by early detecting people with potential exposure to the virus and/or that have the virus, assuring people instead of wondering if they have or have been exposed to the virus.
	
Affordable option compared to other existing tests.
	
Minimum order- 1 box (20 tests)
 
Principle:
The One Step SARS-CoV2(COVID-19)IgG/IgM (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma) is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. The test uses anti-human lgM antibody (test line IgM), anti-human lgG(test line lgG and goat anti-rabbit igG (control line C) immobilized on a nitrocellulose strip. The burgundy colored conjugate pad contains colloidal gold conjugated to recombinant COVID-19 antigens conjugated with colloid gold (COVID-19 conjugates and rabbit lgG-gold conjugates. When a specimen followed by assay buffer is added to the sample well, IgM &/or lgG antibodies if present, will bind to COVID-19 conjugates making antigen antibodies complex. This complex migrates through nitrocellulose membrane by capillary action. When the complex meets the line of the corresponding immobilized antibody (anti-human IgM &/or anit-human lgG) the complex is trapped forming a burgundy colored band which confirm a reactive test result. Absence of colored band in the test region indicates a non-reactive test result. The test contains an internal control(C band)which should exhibit a burgundy colored band of the immunocomplex goat anti rabbit IgG/rabbit lgG-gold conjugate regardless of the color development on any of the test bands. Otherwise, the test result is invalid and the specimen must be retested with another device.
