Paramax-3
Rapid test for the detection of Malaria Pan / Pv / Pf
Application
Paramax-3 is used for the detection of P.falciparum specific histidine rich protein-2 (Pf HRP-2), P.vivax specific pLDH and pan malaria specific pLDH, for the specific detection of P. falciparum and P.vivax malaria, differentiation of other malarial species and for the follow up of antimalarial therapy.
Principle
Self performing, rapid, qualitative immunoassay, lateral flow device
Sensitivity
100% in correlation with microscopy
Specificity
100% specific to P.falciparum HRP 2, P.vivax specific pLDH and pan specific pLDH
Reagents
- Membrane assembly predispensed with:
- Agglutinating sera for Pf. HRP-2 colloidal gold conjugate, Agglutinating sera for P.vivax specific pLDH colloidal gold conjugate, Agglutinating sera for Pan specific pLDH colloidal gold conjugate, and rabbit globulin colloidal gold conjugate
- Agglutinating sera for Pf. HRP-2 at the 'Pf' region
- Agglutinating sera for P.vivax specific pLDH at the 'Pv' region
- Agglutinating sera for Pan specific pLDH at the 'pan' region
- Agglutinating sera for rabbit globulin at 'Control' region - Clearing Buffer
