Rapid Antigenic Test For Sars-Cov-2
The Revolution Covid-19 – Rapid Antigenic Test for Sars-Cov-2 is an immunochromatographic test to detect the presence of the Sars-CoV-2 virus in nasal swab sample.
The Rapid Antigenic Test For Sars-Cov-2 uses Lateral Flow. Technology
This is the first Rapid Antigenic Test produced in Italy, carried out in our laboratories with high-tech machinery.
The kit is CE, IVD certified and notified to the Italian Ministry of Health
Test principle
The Rapid Antigenic Test contains a test strip on which a monoclonal antibody has been immobilized, at the test line (T), and a polyclonal anti-rabbit-IgG antibody at the control line (C). A further monoclonal antibody, conjugated to colloidal gold nanospheres, is also already present in the strip. This conjugate, during the execution of the test, chromatographically migrates together with the sample along the strip. In the presence of the specific viral antigen of SARS CoV 2, the conjugate reacts with it, forming a complex which in turn is “captured” by the monoclonal antibody immobilized on the T line, generating a black / green band. The excess of the conjugate continues its chromatographic run until it reaches the control line (C) with which it reacts by generating an additional black / green band, thus indicating the correct execution of the test.
