Ecotest Pregnancy Test Midstream

The hCG Rapid Test Midstream is a rapid, self-performing, qualitative immunoassay for the determination of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine specimen at 20 mIU/ml or above.

The hCG Rapid Test Midstream is a qualitative, solid phase, two-site sandwich immunoassay (5-6) for the detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine. This test utilizes the principle of immuno-chromatography, a unique two-site immunoassay on a membrane. As the test sample flows through the membrane assembly within the test device, the colored anti-hCG-colloidal gold conjugate binds with the hCG in the sample. This complex moves further on the membrane to the test region where it is immobilized by the anti-hCG coated on the membrane leading to formation of a pink colored line which confirms a positive test result. Absence of this colored line in the test region indicates a negative test result.

The test kits can be stored at room temperature (18 to 30?) in the sealed pouch to the date of expiration. The test kits should be kept away from direct sunlight, moisture and heat.

1. For in vitro diagnostic use only.

2. Do not use test kit beyond expiry date.

3. The test device should not be reused.
