Laboquick Rota Virus antigen cassette test is used as a diagnostic tool to detect qualitative immunochromatographic Rota virusantigen in stool. One step, quick test to determine Rotavirus antigen in stool. Laboquick Rotavirus Rapid Test cassette contains a membrane Strip which employs red gold conjugated monoclonal antibodies against antigen VP6 of group A of rotavirus, and solid-phase specific rotavirus antibodies. Test is based on the immunochromatographic principle. The test device has a sample hole made of the material enabling the reagent to proceed. The membrane that constitutes the test device has been formed ultimately once the rotavirus antigens are passed through the test band space as well as the monoclonal antibodies specific to rotavirus passed through the front cover. Rotavirus antibody takes part in the section of membrane contenting the golden resultant. In case the rotavirus antigens are present in the patient’s stool, it dissolves in the solution included in the sampling bottle then proceeds by using the mixture form of chromatographically antigen- antibody-antigen golden particles towards test space (T) in order to form a visible line. Thus, a visible line appearance in the T space confirms the positive result in the detection of Rotavirus antigen Otherwise, this visible line shall not appear. Unless this visible line is seen in T space, the result is negative. However, there is a color line every time in the control space (C). This control line is a procedural indicator. It confirms that the sufficient sample solution is dropped, the sample expands in the test properly and reagent is under control.
