Description:
The Biopanda EBV VCA Rapid Test Cassette is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies against VCA of Epstein-Barr virus in human whole blood, serum, or plasma samples.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a common human herpesvirus and the primary cause of infectious mononucleosis. EBV infection can cause symptoms including fever, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes and fatigue, although infection may also occur without noticeable symptoms.
Following EBV infection, the immune system produces antibodies against different viral antigens. Viral Capsid Antigen (VCA) IgG antibodies are one of the serological markers that can be assessed when investigating an individual's EBV antibody profile.
EBV VCA IgG testing may be used alongside other EBV antibody markers, including Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigen (EBNA) antibodies, to support the interpretation of EBV serological results. Antibody findings should therefore be considered alongside other appropriate laboratory tests, clinical findings and patient history.
The Biopanda EBV VCA IgG Rapid Test qualitatively detects IgG antibodies against EBV VCA in human whole blood, serum or plasma, providing visually read results in 15 minutes. The test provides healthcare professionals and clinical laboratories with a convenient rapid testing option to support EBV serological investigation.
