Monkeypox Antigen Test Kit (Colloidal gold Assay) CP02206 -10
FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY INTENDED USE
This product is used for the qualitative detection of monkeypox virus antigen in human serum, plasma, whole blood and lesion exudate in vitro.
Monkeypox virus (MPV) is a double-stranded DNA virus that belongs to the Poxviridae family with variola virus. The symptoms of MPV infection are similar to those of smallpox, such as fever, headache, swollen lymph nodes, cough and extreme pain all over the body. Commonly known as "monkey smallpox", it is a Dangerous virus that can be spread through direct contact with a patient or infected animal, or through a patient's bodily fluids. The monkeypox virus was first discovered in monkeys from Africa in a laboratory in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1958, and the world's first human case of monkeypox was reported in the Congo in 1970. A total of two virus strains have been found, the West African strain is less virulent; the other Congo Basin strain is more virulent and almost lethal. Judging from the prevalence of monkeypox in humans, the pathogenicity and infectivity of monkeypox are weaker than those of smallpox, but monkeypox is susceptible to many different animals and has a wide distribution range, which is easy to cause epidemics.
TEST PRINCIPLE This product adopts the double antibody sandwich method and the technical principle of colloidal gold immunochromatography. During the test, the sample is dropped into the sample well of the reagent, and the chromatography is performed under the capillary effect. The human monkeypox antigen in the sample binds to the colloidal gold-labelled monkeypox monoclonal antibody I, diffuses to the test area, and is captured by coated monkeypox monoclonal antibody II, forming a complex to aggregate in the test area; the quality control area is coated with goat anti-mouse IgG antibody, which captures the colloidal gold-labelled antibody to form a complex and aggregate in the quality control area. The highly specific antigen-antibody reaction and colloidal gold immunochromatography technology are combined to qualitatively detect the content of monkeypox virus antigen in human serum, plasma, whole blood or lesion exudate. Test principle: the combination of the analyte with the capture antibody on the membrane and the colloidal gold labeled antibody produces a color change, and the color intensity change has a correlation with the concentration of the analyte.
