The dedicio® H. pylori Antigen Rapid Test Device (Feces) has been designed to detect Helicobacter pylori through visual interpretation of color development in the internal strip. The membrane was immobilized with anti-H. pylori antibodies on the test region. During the test, the specimen is allowed to react with colored anti-H. pylori antibodies colloidal gold conjugates, which were precoated on the sample pad of the test. The mixture then moves on the membrane by a capillary action, and interact with reagents on the membrane. If there are enough H. pylori antigens in specimens, a colored band will form at the test region of the membrane. Presence of this colored band indicates a positive result, while its absence indicates a negative result. Appearance of a colored band at the control region serves as a procedural control. This indicates that proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.
