INTENDED USE
The Chlamydia and Gonorrhea Rapid Test Combo is a rapid visual immunoassay for the qualitative
presumptive detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae in female cervical swab, male urethral swab and male urine
specimens. This kit is intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis
of Chlamydia and Gonorrhea infection.
PRINCIPLE
The Chlamydia and GonorrheaRapid Test Combo detects Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae through visual interpretation of color development on the internal
strip. Antigen-specific lipopolysaccharide (LPS) monoclonal
antibody is immobilized on the test region of the membrane.
OPERATION
Allow the test, specimen, reagents, and/or controls to reach room
temperature (15-30°C) prior to testing.1. Remove the test cassette from the sealed foil pouch and use it
as soon as possible. Best results will be obtained if the test is
performed immediately after opening the foil pouch.
2. Extract the Chlamydia and Gonorrhea antigen according to the specimen type.
For Female endocervical or Male urethral swab specimens:
• Place a clean extraction tube in the workstation. Add 5 drops of
Ragent 1 to the extraction tube.
• Immerse the patient swab into the extraction tube and wait 2
minutes. While waiting, use a circular motion to roll the swab
against the side of the extraction tube so that the liquid is
expressed from the swab and can reabsorb.
• Add 6 drops of Reagent 2. Squeeze the swab firmly against the tube
to expel as much liquid as possible from the swab for 1 minute.
Discard the swab following guidelines for handling infectious
agents. Fit the dropper tip on top of the extraction tube.
• The extracted specimen can remain at room temperature for 60
minutes without affecting the test result.
For Male urine specimens:
• Add 6 drops of Reagent 2 to the urine pellet in the centrifuge
tube, then draw the liquid up and down with a pipette to vigorously
mix until the suspension is homogeneous.
• Transfer all the solution in the centrifuge tube to an extraction
tube. Let stand for 2 minute. Hold the Reagent 2 bottle upright and
add 5 drops of Reagent 1 to the extraction tube. Vortex or tap the
bottom of the tube to mix the solution. Let stand for 1 minutes.
• Fit the dropper tip on top of the extraction tube.3. Add 3 drops (approximately 100 µL) of extracted specimen from
the extraction tube to the specimen well (S) of the test cassette.
Avoid trapping air bubbles in the specimen well (S), and do not add
any solution to the result window.
As the test begins to work, color will migrate across the membrane.4. Wait for the colored band(s) to appear. The result should be read
at 10 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 20 minutes.
