Malaria Test kit

Intend to use

 The Malaria Pf/Pan Rapid Test Device (Whole Blood) is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of circulating antigens of Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium ovale, Plasmodium malariae in whole blood.

Operating  Steps

Allow the test device, specimen, buffer, and/or controls to equilibrate to room temperature (15-30°C) prior to testing.

1.   Remove the test device from the foil pouch and use it as soon as possible. Best resultswill be obtained if the assay is performed within one hour.

2.   Place the test device on a clean and level surface. Transfer the specimen by a Pipette or a dropper:

• To use a Pipette: Transfer 5 mL of whole blood to specimen well of the test device, and then add 3 drops of buffer (approximately 180ul), and start the timer.

• To use a Disposable Specimen Dropper: Hold the dropper vertically; draw the specimen up to the Fill Line (approximately 5ul). Transfer the specimen to the specimen well, then add 3 drops of buffer (approximately 180ul) and start the timer.

• Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. The result should be read at 10 minutes.  Do not interpret the result after 20 minutes.
