INTENDED USE The Porcine Circovirus Type-2 Antibody Rapid Test is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Porcine Circovirus Type-2 Antibody(PCV-2 Ab) in pig's serum, or plasma specimen. Assay Time: 5-10 minutes Specimen: serum, plasma, or milk specimen. PRINCIPLE The Porcine Circovirus Type-2 Antibody Rapid Test is based on sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. The test device has a testing window for the observation of assay running and result reading. The testing window has an invisible T(test) zone and a C(control) zone before running the assay. When the treated sample was applied into the sample hole on the device, the liquid will laterally flow through the surface of the test strip and react with the pre-coated PCV-2 antigens. If there are anti-PCV-2 antibodies in the specimen, a visible T line will appears. The C line should always appear after a sample is applied, which indicates a valid result. By this means, the device can indicate the presence of porcine Circovirus type-2 antibodies in the specimen. REAGENTS AND MATERIALS

STORAGE AND STABILITY The kit can be stored at room temperature (2-30°C). The test kit is stable through the expiration date (18 months) marked on the package label. DO NOT FREEZE. Do not store the test kit in direct sunlight.
Negative: Only clear C band appear. No T band. It indicates that the titer of PCV-2 antibody in the specimen is below 1:40. Positive: The presence of both "C" line and zone "T" line. It indicates that the titer of PCV-2 antibody in the specimen is above 1:40. The deeper the color, the higher the titer. Invalid: No colored band appears in C zone. No matter if T band appears.
PRECAUTIONS
- All reagents must be at room temperature before
running the assay. - Do not remove test cassette from its pouch until
immediately before use. - Do not use the test beyond its expiration date. - The components in this kit have been quality control
tested as standard batch unit. Do not mix components
