The OnSite HCV Ab Plus Rapid Test (Strip) is a highly sensitive, double antigen-based lateral flow immunoassay designed for the qualitative detection of anti-Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibodies (IgG, IgM, and IgA) in human serum or plasma. This test enables reliable screening for past or current HCV infection in various clinical and field settings.
The test uses a Core-NS3-NS4-NS5 double antigen method to capture a broader antibody profile, ensuring the detection of low-titer anti-HCV antibodies often missed by conventional single-antigen platforms. With a simple dip-strip format, rapid results, and no need for additional equipment, the test is ideal for point-of-care (POC) use.
Key Features and Benefits
- Double Antigen Format: Targets multiple HCV proteins (Core, NS3, NS4, NS5) for increased sensitivity
- Broad Antibody Detection: Detects IgG, IgM, and IgA antibodies for comprehensive serological screening
- User-Friendly Dip Strip: Fast and simple procedure suitable for basic and advanced health facilities
- No Equipment Needed: Enables rapid testing even in remote or resource-limited environments
- Clear Results: Designed for easy visual interpretation within minutes
- Ideal for Mass Screening: Suitable for use in clinical labs, mobile units, and outreach programs
