Description

Product information

The CRP Semi-Quantitative Rapid Test Cassette (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma) is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the Semi-quantitative detection of human CRP in whole blood, serum or plasma as an aid in the diagnosis of inflammatory condition.

Advantages of CRP test

• Easy to perform
• No complex sample collection needed
• Semi-Quantitative result
• Accurate test result

General information

The CRP Semi-Quantitative Rapid Test Cassette (Whole Blood/Serum/Plasma) detects C-reactive Protein through visual interpretation of color development on the internal strip. Anti CRP antibodies are immobilized on the test region of the membrane. During testing, the specimen reacts with anti-CRP antibodies conjugated to colored particles and precoated on the sample pad of the test. The mixture then migrates through the membrane by capillary action, and interacts with reagents on the membrane.

If the intensity of the test band is weaker than reference band (R), it indicates that the CRP level in the specimen is between 10-60 mg/L. If the intensity of the test band (T) is stronger than the reference band (R), it indicates that the CRP level is above 60 mg/L. The appearance of control line serves as a procedural control, indicating that the proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.
