Product details.
Intended use: The POCT Typhoid Card (IgG/IgM) is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the simultaneous detection and differentiation of IgG and IgM antibodies to Salmonella typhi in human whole blood, serum or plasma, packed for point-of-care use with a dropper, lancet and alcohol pad for each test. Reactive samples must be confirmed by another method. Manufactured at Reckon’s Vadodara facility under ISO 13485:2016 quality management, and released against reference standards before dispatch.

Procedure at a glance5 steps
- Bring the specimen and test components to room temperature, and mix thawed specimens well.
- Open the pouch at the notch and lay the device on a clean, flat surface.
- Add 1 drop (about 25 to 30 µl) of whole blood, serum or plasma to the sample well without air bubbles, then 2 drops (about 75 to 80 µl) of buffer straight away.
- Read within 15 minutes; positives can show within 1 minute.
- C only is negative; C and M is IgM positive; C and G is IgG positive; C, M and G is positive for both; no C line means the test is invalid.
