Artron Agro True Aflatoxin – M1 Rapid Test Kit
Catalog Number: A07-32-413
INTENDED USE:
Artron One-Step Aflatoxin-M1 Test Kit is a rapid and convenient qualitative immunochromatographic assay for the detection of Aflatoxin-M1 molecules in fresh dairy samples at or above the cutoff level of 30~50 ng/kg(ppt). It is intended for professional use to detect the presence of aflatoxin-M1 in fresh milk samples. This assay provides only a preliminary result. Clinical expertise and professional judgment should be sought to further evaluate the result of the test
DESCRIPTION:
The Artron Aflatoxin M1 Test device contains mouse monoclonal anti-aflatoxin M1 antibody-colloidal gold conjugate deposited and pre-died in the conjugate microwell. Aflatoxin M1-BSA conjugates antigen (on test region) and goat anti-mouse IgG (on control region) are coated and immobilized on a reaction membrane.
The principal of the Artorn Aflatoxin M1 Test is a solid phase competitive inhibition immuno-chromatographic assay, in which aflatoxin M1-BSA competes with Aflatoxin M1 molecules that may possibly be present in milk samples. Sample solutions to be tested will migrate via capillary action toward the test window where the test reaction occurs. A negative specimen produces two distinct color bands, one in the test zone and one in the control zone, the color of the T line is stronger or equal to the C line; a positive specimen produces a lighter T line or the T line is invisible.
To serve as an internal process control, a control band was designed to indicate that the test is performed properly. By utilizing the different antigen/antibody reactions, this control line is always supposed to be seen after completing the test. The absence of a colored control line in the control zone is an indication of an invalid result.
