Test Principle

  • The AffiVET® Test Strip applies a colloidal gold immuno- chromatography technique for qualitative detection of Swine
  • Fever Virus antigen in porcine serum, plasma, and whole blood.
  • During testing, the Swine Fever Virus Antigen in the sample interacts with monoclonal antibodies coated with colloidal gold, forming complexes that migrate across the strip.
  • Upon reaching the T-line, specific antibodies on the membrane capture the complexes, resulting in the appearance of a T line.
  • The presence of both the Test line (T line) and the control line (C line) indicates a positive test result.

Sample Collection & Preparation

Whole blood

  • Collect anticoagulated whole blood.
  • Test the same day.

Serum

  • Collect blood and keep at 37°C for 1-2h.
  • Take the supernatant and centrifuge at 1500r min for 10min then separate the serum.
  • The serum can be stored for 2-3 days at 4°C.
  • For long term storage, freeze at – 20°C.

Test Procedure

  3. Take out the test card.
  4. Use the dropper to absorb the sample.
  5. Drop 2 to 3 drops into the well marked with “S”, or use Micropipette to transfer 70 pL of the sample into well mark “S”.
  6. Read the results in 5 to 10 min at room temperature.

This confirms the presence of the Swine Fever Virus Antigen in sample.

Invalid Result
