Sample Collection and Preparation

Whole Blood ( Fingerstick Specimens)

Clean the area to be lanced with an alcohol swab.

Squeeze the end of the fingertip and pierce it with a sterile lancet ;  Wipe away the first drop of blood with sterile gauze or cotton;  Use micropipette to obtain about 100ul fresh blood.

Assay Procedure

Serum/Plasma: Add 70-100ul or 2-3 drops of serum or plasma into sample well. Observe the result in 5-20 minutes.
 
Whole Blood: Add 1 drop of whole blood into sample well, after all blood is completely absorbed. Add 1 drop of whole blood diluent. Observe the result in 5-20 minutes.
 
Interpretation of Results

Negative:

No apparent band in the test region (T), a pink-colored band appears in the control region (C). This indicates that no HBsAg antibody has been detected.

Positive:

In addition to a pink-colored band in the control region (C), a pink-colored band will appear in the test region (T). This indicates that the specimen contains HBsAg.

Invalid:

If no band appears in the control region (C), regardless of the presence or absence of line in the test region (T). It indicates a possible error in performing the test. The test should be repeated using a new device.
