Rota Virus

The Rotavirus Rapid Test Cassette (Feces) is a qualitative, lateral flow immunoassay for the
detection of rotavirus in human feces specimens. In this test, the membrane is pre-coated with
anti-rotavirus antibody on the test line region of the test. During testing, the specimen reacts with
the particle coated with anti-rotavirus antibody. The mixture migrates upward on the membrane
chromatographically by capillary action to react with anti-rotavirus antibody on the membrane
and generate a colored line in the test line region. The presence of this colored line in the test
region indicates a positive result, while its absence indicates a negative result. To serve as a
procedural control, a colored line will always appear in the control line region indicating that proper
volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.
