Intended use

It is intended for screening and as an aid in the diagnosis of IgG antibodies to Hepatitis E Virus RNA (genotypes 1&4) in human serum or plasma.

Diagnostic Principle

1. Microwell strips are pre-coated with recombinant antigens of Hepatitis E Virus;

2. Samples of blood serum or plasma are diluted and dripped to Microwell strip;

3. When it’s detected Hepatitis E Virus antibody in samples, it will form a specific binding of antigen and antibody;

4. React with the added anti-human IgG enzyme conjugate, different results will present different colors through enzyme substrate. The presence or absence of antibodies to hepatitis E virus is determined by the ratio of the OD of each sample on Microplate Reader.  

Storage

It should be stored at 2-8℃, kept from light. After opening the box, the unused reagents are stable if stored between 2-8℃ with desiccant and should be used up within one week. It’s stable if it’s transported in room temperature within a consecutive 5 days.
