hCG Combo Pregnancy Cassette Rapid Test Kits, CLIA Waived 25/Box
hCG Combo Pregnancy Cassette Rapid Test Kits are medical devices used to detect the presence of the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone in a woman's urine or blood. The hCG hormone is produced by the placenta during pregnancy and its presence is used to confirm pregnancy.
These kits are also CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments) waived, which means they have been reviewed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are considered to be simple and accurate enough to be used at home or in a healthcare setting without the need for complex laboratory equipment or extensive training. They typically consist of a dipstick or cassette test device, a dropper or pipette for applying the specimen, and instructions for use.
hCG Combo Pregnancy Cassette Rapid Test Kits are commonly used in clinics, hospitals, and home settings for early pregnancy detection and monitoring. They offer a convenient and timely option for women suspecting they might be pregnant and can provide results in just a few minutes.
The hCG Combo Pregnancy Cassette Rapid Test Kit detects the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in the urine or serum. hCG is a hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy.
The test device contains antibodies that are specific to hCG. When a urine or serum sample is added to the test cassette, any hCG present will bind to the antibodies. This forms a visible colored line on the test strip.
If no hCG is present in the sample, there will be no colored line on the test strip. This indicates a negative result.
The test also includes a separate control line, which will appear regardless of the result. This ensures that the test is working properly.
The hCG Combo Pregnancy Cassette Rapid Test Kit is known as a lateral flow immunoassay test. It provides a quick and accurate result in just a few minutes. However, it is important to note that no test is 100% accurate and it is always best to confirm results with a healthcare provider.
