SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Test Strip
Overview
Sinocare SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Test Strip is a rapid, accurate and simple point-of-care IgM-IgG combined antibody test kit, using lateral flow immunoassays, which can qualitatively detect IgM and IgG antibodies simultaneously against SARS-CoV-2 virus in human blood within 15-20 minutes.
(CE marked, FDA is coming soon!)
Incubation period of Virus would be about 0-10 days,IgM can be detected about 7 days after onset,IgG would appear about 10 days after onset.

Rapid detection & Simple operation
The novel virus, now known as SARS-CoV-2 (also known as virus), a RNA virus of the beta coronavirus family. IgM-IgG combined antibody test is suitable for rapid diagnosis and screening of the large amount of suspected patients and asymptomatic carriers to prevent secondary transmission and assure timely treatment of infections.

FAQ
1. What is SARS-CoV-2 & Virus?
The novel virus, now known as SARS-CoV-2 , is a RNA virus of the b novel coronavirus strain, in charge of the current global pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 causes the disease named Virus.
2. What is Sinocare SARS-CoV-2 test strip?
It is the IgM-IgG combined test strip, is used to qualitatively detect IgG and IgM antibodies of the novel coronavirus in human serum, plasma or whole blood in vitro.
3. Should I do the SARS-CoV-2 test?
It can be used for rapid screening of carriers of the virus that are symptomatic or asymptomatic.
4. How fast is Sinocare’s SARS-CoV-2 test?
Only needs 15-20 minutes.
5. What do the results tell me?
(1) Negative Result: If only the quality control line (C) appears and the detection lines is not visible, then no novel coronavirus antibody has been detected and the result is negative.
(2) Positive Result: Two red lines appear. One line should be in the control zone (C) and another line should be in the test zone (T) shows the result is positive for both the IgG and IgM antibodies.
(3) Invalid: Control line fails to appear (See picture 2). Test result is invalid.
6. If I need a lot, can you meet my demand?
Yes, we can anlarge our scale production to meet your demands, please confirm your order in advance and our turnaround time is about 1 week.
