Monkeypox Virus IgM/IgG Antibody Combined Rapid Test Kit

Monkeypox is a disease of global public health concern affecting many countries around the world.

The Monkeypox Virus (MPV) IgM/IgG Antibody Combined Rapid Test Kit is used for in vitro qualitative detection of monkeypox virus IgM/IgG antibodies in human serum, plasma or whole blood samples.

This kit adopts the principle of colloidal gold immunochromatography. The detection area of nitrocellulose membrane (G-line and M-line) is coated with mouse anti-human IgG monoclonal antibody and mouse anti-human IgM monoclonal antibody two test lines, and the quality control region (C-line) is coated with rabbit anti-chicken IgY polyclonal antibody and colloidal gold labelled recombinant Monkeypox virus antigen (recombine MPV-Ag) on the gold colloidal conjugate pad.

During the detection of the positive sample, the Monkeypox virus (MPV) antibody(MPV-IgG or MPV-IgM) in the sample combined with colloidal gold (Au) labelled recombinant Monkeypox virus antigen to form an (Au-MPV-Ag-MPV-IgG or Au-MPV-Ag-MPV-IgM) immune complex, which flows forward in the nitrocellulose membrane. It is combined with coated mouse anti-human IgG monoclonal antibody and (or) mouse anti-human IgM monoclonal antibody to form agglutination and develop colour (Au－MPV-Ag)-(MPV-IgG)-mouse anti-human IgG monoclonal antibody and/or (Au－MPV-Ag)-(MPV-IgM)-mouse anti-human IgM monoclonal antibody during the test. For a negative sample, the detection area (G-line) and (M-line) can’t agglutinate and develop colour. It always develops a red line in the quality control region (C-line) regardless of whether the sample contains a Monkeypox virus antibody.

This test is used, to help aid in the diagnosis of infection with the Monkeypox virus. Clear instructions are provided in the box to help you understand and administer this test on your patients safely and effectively within 15 minutes.
