5. Read the test results at 10 minutes. Results read after 10 minutes are considered invalid.

Principle

The Biopanda Rotavirus Rapid Test is a qualitative, lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of Rotavirus in human faecal samples.
In this test, the membrane is pre-coated with anti-rotavirus antibody on the test line region of the test. During testing, the specimen reacts with the particles coated with anti-rotavirus antibody. The mixture migrates upward on the membrane chromatographically by capillary action to react with anti-rotavirus antibody on the membrane and generates a coloured line. The presence of a coloured line in the test line region indicates a positive result, while an absence indicates a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a coloured line will always appear in the control line region indicating that proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.

Performance Characteristics

• Relative sensitivity: >99.9%
