INTRODUCTION A novel coronavirus infection was identified in December 2019, which confirmed as severe acute respiratory syndrome caused by infection with a new Betacoronavirus. The World Health Organization (WHO) named this new corona-virus as “SARS-CoV-2” and the disease as “COVID-19” that has been causing hundreds of thousands of confirmed human infections worldwide. MDx ® COVID-19 Ab Rapid Test is in vitro diagnostic kit to detect IgM and/or IgG against SARS-CoV-2 qualitatively using immuno-chromatographic method. This kit can be applied as a supplemental diagnostic tool to the real time RT-PCR test. PERFORMANCE DATA INDEX OF SYMBOLS 1. Clinical sensitivity : 94.3% 2. Clinical specificity : 98.7% 3. Analytical sensitivity Limit of Detection (LoD) : Detectable up to VN(Viral Neutralization) titer 1:8 4. Analytical specificity 1) No cross reactivity against antibodies to 25 different kinds of pathogens as following; 2) No interference with 14 different immune-response associated materials (IRAM) In Vitro Diagnostics Consult Instruction Manual Do Not Reuse Contains Sufficient for <n> Tests Batch Code (LOT) Manufacturing Date Expiration Date Temperature Limitation INTENDED USE MDx ® COVID-19 Ab Rapid Test is a chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of IgM/IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 present in human whole blood, serum and plasma. This test is for in vitro professional diagnostic use and intended as a supplemental method to diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in convalescent phase of patient with clinical symptoms with COVID-19. It provides only an initial screening test result. PRINCIPLE OF THE TEST MDx ® COVID-19 Ab Rapid Test is based on the principle of immunochromatographic assay for detection of SARS-CoV-2 IgG/IgM antibodies in human whole blood, serum, and plasma. When the specimen is added into the test device, the specimen is absorbed into the sample pad by capillary reaction, binds to the SARS- CoV-2 recombinant antigen-gold particle conjugate and the immune complexes move through the membrane with pre-coated capture antibody lines. When the SARS-CoV-2 antibodies level in the specimen is at or above the cut-off (limit of detection, LoD), the immune complexes (antibodies bound to the antigen-gold conjugate particles) are captured by anti-human IgG (T2) and/or anti-human IgM (T1) immobilized as the test lines in the device, visualizing a colored test band that indicates a positive result. When the SARS-CoV-2 antibody level in the specimen is below the cut-off or no antibody, no band is visualized in the Test region (T2 and T1) of the device, indicating a negative test result. If the test performed properly, a colored line should always appear at the Control line (C). SPECIMEN AND SAMPLE PREPARATION 1. For whole blood 1) Finger stick blood a. Clean and disinfect the area to be lanced with an 70% alcohol swab. b. Squeeze the end of fingertip and pierce with a sterile lancet. c. Collect the 20 μl of finger stick blood using Capillary Tube. d. The finger stick blood must be tested immediately after collection. 2) Venous whole blood a. Collect the venous whole blood into the blood collection tube containing anticoagulants such as heparin, EDTA, Sodium citrate by venipuncture. b. When the blood in the tube is stored in a refrigerator at 2-8 o C/36-46 o F, the specimen can be used for testing for 1-2 days after collection. c. Do not use hemolyzed blood specimens. 2. For serum 1) Collect whole blood into blood collection tube without anticoagulants by venipuncture and leave it for 30 minutes for coagulation. 2) Centrifuge coagulated blood and quickly collect the serum from the centrifuged tube to avoid hemolysis. 3) If serum in the tube is stored in a refrigerator at 2-8 o C/36-46 o F, the specimen can be used for testing for 1 week after collection. The specimen needs to be kept at the -20 o C/-4 o F for longer term storage. 4) The specimen should be warm up at room temperature prior to test. 3. For plasma 1) Collect the whole blood into the blood collection tube containing anticoagulants such as heparin, EDTA, Sodium citrate by venipuncture and centrifuge the whole blood to collect plasma. 2) If plasma in the tube is stored in a refrigerator at 2-8 o C/36-46 o F, the specimen can be used for testing for 1 week after collection. The specimen needs to be kept at the -20 o C/-4 o F for longer term storage. 3) The specimen should be warm up at room temperature prior to test. PRECAUTION 1. This kit is for in vitro diagnostic use only. 2. All specimens should be treated as potentially infectious materials. Use appropriate precautions in collection, handling, storage, and disposal of samples and used kit components according to biosafety level 2 or higher guidelines. 3. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (eg, gown, gloves, mask, eye protection etc.) when handling and testing the specimens. 4. Follow the direction of the instruction manual strictly for an accurate result. 5. After tearing the foil pouch, use the device as soon as possible (<10 minutes). Moisture can negatively affect on the performance of the device. 6. Discard the device and Capillary Tube after use. These components cannot be used more than once. 7. When Capillary Tube is used for blood collection, the small hole at the end of the Capillary Tube should not be blocked for efficient capillary reaction. 8. Do not use the kit beyond the expiration date. 9. Testing should be performed by professionally trained staff working in certified laboratories or clinics. 10. Test results should be interpreted by the medical doctor along with clinical findings and other laboratory test results. 11. Disposal of the diagnostic device: All specimens and used kit should be treated as bio-hazard wastes. The handling and disposal of all specimens and used kit must follow the all local, state, and national regulations. 12. Results from this antibody testing should not be used to inform infection status (early stage of infection or recovery stage etc). 13. This test is only for qualitative assay. Neither the quantitative value nor the concentration of anti-SARS- CoV-2 antibody can be determined by this kit.
