About Malaria P.f/Pan Antigen Rapid Test - PEERCHECK DIVISION 1 40 Tests / Kit

Malaria P.f/Pan Antigen Rapid Test - PEERCHECK DIVISION 1 40 Tests / Kit

The PEERCHECK DIVISION 1 Malaria P.f/Pan Antigen Rapid Test is a diagnostic kit manufactured by Peerless Biotech for the detection of malaria

. The kit can distinguish between the antigens of the most severe form of malaria, Plasmodium falciparum (P.f), and other, non-falciparum malaria species (Pan).

Features and components

Target antigens: The test works by detecting specific antigens in a blood sample:
- P.f line: Detects the Histidine-Rich Protein II (HRP-II) antigen specific to Plasmodium falciparum.
- Pan line: Detects Plasmodium lactate dehydrogenase (pLDH), an enzyme found in all Plasmodium species, including P. vivax, P. ovale, and P. malariae.
Test type: It is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay, also known as a rapid diagnostic test (RDT), delivered in a cassette format.
Sample type: The test can be performed using a small amount of whole blood, which can be collected via a finger prick at the point of care.
Results: The kit is designed to provide clear, easy-to-interpret results, enabling prompt clinical decisions and treatment.
- Positive P.f: A test line appears in the P.f region and the control (C) region.
- Positive Pan: A test line appears in the Pan region and the control (C) region, indicating non-falciparum malaria.
- Positive mixed infection: Test lines appear in both the P.f and Pan regions, along with the control line.
- Negative: Only the control (C) line appears.
- Invalid: No control line appears.
Storage and handling: The kits are stored at room temperature, making them suitable for remote or limited-resource settings without needing refrigeration.
Packaging: A kit is packaged for 40 tests, with each test card individually sealed in a foil pouch with a desiccant.

Procedure summary

Obtain a blood sample from the patient via a finger prick using a sterile lancet.
Add a specified volume of blood to the sample well of the test cassette.
Add the corresponding buffer solution to the buffer well.
Wait for the required time, typically 1530 minutes, before reading the result.
Read the test results by observing the lines that appear in the result window.
Dispose of all used materials safely after interpretation.

Important considerations

Professional use: The test is intended for use by trained healthcare professionals, not for self-diagnosis.
Not a replacement for lab tests: While providing rapid results, rapid antigen tests may have lower sensitivity than microscopic examination of blood smears or RT-PCR, especially with low parasite loads. A negative rapid test result may need confirmation with a more sensitive lab test, particularly if clinical symptoms are present.
Early diagnosis: Rapid diagnostic tests play a critical role in the timely diagnosis and treatment of malaria, especially in regions with limited laboratory facilities.
