Lyme Antibody Rapid Test Kit Lyme Ab Rapid Test Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma Sample 25 Tests/Box

Intended use

The Lyme Ab Rapid Test (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma) is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi in whole blood, serum, or plasma to aid in the diagnosis of Lyme disease.

Principle:

The Lyme Ab Rapid Test (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma) is a qualitative membrane-based immunoassay for the detection of Borrelia burgdorferi antibodies in whole blood, serum, or plasma. In this test, the specimen or specimen followed by buffer is added to the specimen well of the test device. The specimen migrates chromatographically along the length of the test strip contained within the device and interacts with the reagents on the strip.

If the specimen contains Borrelia burgdorferi antibodies, a colored line will appear in the test line region indicating a positive result. 

If the specimen does not contain Borrelia burgdorferi antibodies, a colored line will not appear in this region, indicating a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a colored line will always appear at the control line region, indicating that the proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.
