Details
Human coriogonadotropin is a glucoprotein hormone produced by the developing placenta shortly after fertilisation. In normal pregnancies, the hormone hCG is detectable in urine 7-10 days after conception. hCG hormone levels increase steadily and rapidly after fertilisation, rising to 100 mlU/ml after the first missed menstrual period, peaking at 100,000-200,000 mlU/ml in the 10th-12th week of pregnancy with a maximum value of 100,000-200,000 mlU/ml. The early appearance of the hormone hCG in the blood and urine immediately after conception offers the possibility of early detection of pregnancy.
The hCG Pregnancy Rapid Test Strip for the qualitative detection of hCG hormone in urine with a sensitivity of 25 mIU/ml. The test strip uses a combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to selectively detect increasing levels of hCG in urine. The test strip shows no cross-reactivity with structurally similar glucoprotein hormones such as hFSH, hLH and hTSH, even at high physiological concentrations.
The hCG Pregnancy Rapid Test Strip (Urine) is a convenient diagnostic tool for the qualitative detection of the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine for early detection of pregnancy. The test shows the result on two lines. The test strip contains a specific hCG antibody-dye conjugate in the test zone and a goat polyclonal antibody and dye in the control zone. When the test strip is immersed in the urine sample, the urine is absorbed by capillary action and shows a coloured line in the test and control zones. The absence of a coloured line in the test zone (T) indicates a positive result and the presence of a coloured line in the test zone (T) indicates a negative result. To verify the procedure, a coloured line is displayed in the control zone (C) indicating the correct functioning of the test strip, confirming that the sample volume and absorption were correct.
