Introduction
- The HBsAg Rapid Test Device/Strip is a professional infectious disease rapid test designed for qualitative detection of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen.
- This rapid test is suitable for whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens.
- The device supports fast hepatitis B screening and helps healthcare professionals identify possible HBV infection.
- Results should be interpreted with symptoms, medical history, exposure history, and additional laboratory findings when required.
What Is Covid Ag Test
HBsAg stands for Hepatitis B Surface Antigen. It is a protein found on the surface of the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV). Detection of HBsAg in blood may indicate active hepatitis B infection and is commonly used in hepatitis B screening programs.
Importance
- The HBsAg Rapid Test Device/Strip helps healthcare professionals screen for possible hepatitis B infection quickly.
- Hepatitis B is a viral liver infection that may lead to serious liver disease if not properly monitored.
- Rapid hepatitis B screening supports infection control, blood safety programs, healthcare screening, and public health monitoring.
- HBsAg testing is commonly used in hospitals, blood banks, laboratories, occupational health programs, and healthcare checkups.
Intended Use
The HBsAg Rapid Test Device/Strip by LARKSOIS Pharma may be used in professional diagnostic and healthcare screening environments.
Applications
- Hepatitis B infection screening
- Blood donor screening support
- Hospital and laboratory testing
- Occupational health screening
- Pre-employment medical screening
- Public health hepatitis programs
- Point-of-care infectious disease testing
- Healthcare checkups
- International diagnostic distribution
How It Works
- The HBsAg Rapid Test Device/Strip works on a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay principle.
- When whole blood, serum, or plasma is added to the test device, the sample migrates through the membrane.
- If HBsAg is present in the specimen, it reacts with coated antibodies and forms a visible colored test line.
- The control line confirms valid sample migration and correct test performance.
Method
The HBsAg Rapid Test Device/Strip uses rapid lateral flow immunochromatographic technology for qualitative detection of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen in whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens.
Benefits
- Rapid hepatitis B screening
- Qualitative HBsAg detection
- Suitable for whole blood, serum, or plasma
- Simple visual interpretation
- No advanced instrument required
- Supports blood safety screening
- Useful for hospitals and laboratories
- Professional infectious disease application
