HCG Pregnancy Test Midstream Urine Pregnancy Test

Product Description:

Because the amount of a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in your body increases rapidly during the first two weeks of pregnancy, the test cassette will detect the presence of this hormone in your urine as early as the first day of a missed period. The test cassette can accurately detect pregnancy when the level of HCG is between 25mIU/ml to 500,000mIU/ml.

The test reagent is exposed to urine, allowing urine to migrate through the absorbent test cassette. The labeled antibody-dye conjugate binds to the HCG in the specimen forming an antibody-antigen complex. This complex binds to the anti-HCG antibody in the test region (T) and produces a red line when HCG concentration is equal to or greater than 25mIU/ml. In the absence of HCG, there is no line in the test region (T). The reaction mixture continues flowing through the absorbent device past the test region (T) and control region (C). Unbound conjugate binds to the reagents in the control region (C), producing a red line, demonstrating that the test cassette is functioning correctly.

Testing Method

Remove the test midstream from the sealed pouch.

Remove the Cap and hold the midstream with the exposed Absorbent Tip pointing downward directly into your urine stream for at least 10 seconds until it is thoroughly wet. NOTE: If you prefer, you can urinate into a clean and dry container, then dip only the Absorbent Tip of the midstream into the urine for at least 10 seconds.

After removing the midstream from your urine, immediately replace the Cap over the Absorbent Tip, lay the midstream on a flat surface with the Result Window facing, and then begin timing.

Wait for colored lines to appear. Interpret the test results at 3-5 minutes.

NOTE: Do not read results after 5 minutes.
