Helicobacter Pylori (HP)Antigen Rapid Test formt:Strip,Cassette,uncut sheet.

Helicobacter Pylori INTENDED USE 
The Helicobacter-Pylori antigen rapid test kit (stool) is a rapid visual immunoassay for the qualitative detection of
helicobacter pylori antigen in human stool specimens. This kit is used as an aid in the diagnosis of H. pylori
infection.

Helicobacter Pylori  INTRODUCTION
Helicobacter pylori (also known as Campylobacter pylori) as a spiral-shaped gram negative bacteria which infects the
gastric mucosa. H. pylori to causes several gastro-enteric diseases such as non-ulcerous dyspepsia, gastric and
duodenal ulcer, active gastritis and can even increase the risk of stomach adenocarcinoma.
The epidemiologic study shows that more than 50% of the world's population is infected by H. pylori strains. Infection
is more prevalent in developing countries. The lowest infection rate is 20%, and the highest infection rate can be 90%
in developing countries. H. pylori strains is the major reason to cause chronic gastritis and gastric ulcers, 80%-90%
chronic gastritis patients and 95%-100% gastric ulcers patients are infected by H. pylori strains. So the detection and
treatment of H. pylori strains infection is very important.
At present several invasive and non-invasive approaches are available to detect this infection state. Invasive
methodologies require endoscopy of the gastric mucosa with histologic, cultural and urease investigation, which are
expensive and require some time for diagnosis. Alternatively,non-invasive methods are available such as breath tests,
which are extremely complicated and not highly selective, and classical ELISA and immunoblot assays. This Kit
belongs to non-invasive approach.

Helicobacter Pylori PRINCIPLE
This kit is designed to detect helicobacter pylori through visual interpretation of the color development in the internal
strip based on the specific The membrane was immobilized with antibodies-specific on the test well (T) and
corresponding antibodies on the control well(C) .
During testing, the specimen is added to the sample region (S) and reacts with anti-H. pylori antibodies conjugated to
colored particles and precoated onto the sample pad of the test. Then, the mixture migrates through the membrane by
capillary effect and interacts with reagents on the membrane. If there is sufficient H. pylori antigens in the specimen, a
colored band will form at the test well (T) of the membrane, and this colored band indicates a positive result, while its
absence indicates a negative result. A colored band at the control well(C) serves as a procedural control, indicating
that the proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.

4.  Analytical Sensitivity: The result is positive when testing with 150ng HP antigen/ml dilution.
5.  Intra-batch Discrepancy: The test results are the same in one batch
6.  Inter-batch Discrepancy: The test results are the same in different batch
7.  Comparison: Compared with other famous branded H. Pylori Antigen Test Kit, the coincidence rate is 91.8%, and
the clinical coincidence rate is 94.6%
8.  Anti-interference Performance: No interference by human hemoglobin 1000mg/dl and Animal hemoglobin
2000mg/dl

Helicobacter Pylori PRECAUTIONS
  For disposable use only
  For professional in vitro diagnostic use only.
  The specimen dilution buffer contains sodium azide which may react with lead or copper plumbing to form
potentially explosive metal azides. Do not drink or smell it.
  Do not use the devices when the package damaged
  Do not interchange or mix reagents from different lots
  Do not use after the expiration date indicated on the package
  Do not touch membrane before us
  After completing assay, dispose the test kit and tube carefully after autoclaving them at 121°C for at least
20mintues. Or treat them with 0.5% sodium hypochloride for 40-60 minutes, or burn them.
