Toxo Igg/Igm Ab Rapid Test Kit Home Test Testsealabs Manufacturer

Intended Use
Toxo IgG/IgM Rapid Test is a rapid immunochromatographic test for the simultaneous detection of IgM and IgG antibodies to Toxo gondii in human serum/plasma. The test can be used as a screening test for Toxo infection and as an aid for differential diagnosis of the self limiting primary Toxo infections and the potentially fatal secondary Toxo infections in conjunction with other criteria.

Detection for: lgM anti-toxo plasma Gondii (T.gondii) and IgG anti-T gondii in human serum or plasma
Reading time: 15 minutes

Summary
The Toxo IgG/IgM Rapid Test is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay. The test cassette consists of: 1) a burgundy  colored conjugate pad containing Toxo recombinant envelope antigens conjugated with colloid gold (Toxo conjugates) and  rabbit IgG-gold conjugates,2) a nitrocellulose membrane strip containing  two test bands  (T1 and T2 bands) and a control band (C band).  The T1 band is pre-coated with the antibody for the detection of IgM anti-Toxo, T2 band is coated with antibody for the detection of IgG anti-Toxo, and the C band is pre-coated with goat anti rabbit IgG.  When an adequate volume of test specimen is dispensed into the sample well of the test cassette, the specimen migrates by capillary action across the cassette. The immunocomplex is then captured by the reagent coated on the T2 band, forming a burgundy colored T2 band, indicating a Toxo IgG positive test result and suggesting a recent or repeat infection. The immunocomplex is then captured by the reagent pre-coated on the T1 band, forming a burgundy colored T1 band, indicating a Toxo IgM positive test result and suggesting a fresh infection. Absence of any T bands (T1 and T2) suggests a negative result.
