Description
Product Overview
The hs-CRP + CRP Rapid Test Kit is a one-step colloidal gold immunoassay designed for quantitative determination of C-reactive protein (CRP) and high-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) in human serum, plasma, whole blood or fingertip blood samples.
CRP is an acute-phase protein that increases in response to inflammation, infection and tissue injury. Measurement of hs-CRP in combination with CRP helps clinicians evaluate inflammatory conditions and assess cardiovascular risk.
This test is compatible with the FIA8000 quantitative immunoassay analyzer, providing rapid and reliable quantitative results for hospital laboratories and diagnostic centers.
Intended Use
The hs-CRP + CRP Rapid Test is intended for quantitative determination of C-reactive protein (CRP) in human serum, plasma, whole blood or fingertip blood samples.
The test is used for:
• Detection of inflammatory disorders
• Evaluation of bacterial and viral infections
• Cardiovascular risk assessment using hs-CRP
• Monitoring inflammatory diseases
Clinical Significance
C-reactive protein is an acute-phase protein produced by the liver in response to inflammation.
CRP levels increase rapidly during:
• bacterial infections
• tissue injury
• inflammatory diseases
• cardiovascular conditions
High-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) is widely used to assess the risk of atherosclerosis and acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
The combination of hs-CRP and CRP measurement provides valuable information for both infection diagnosis and cardiovascular risk evaluation.
Test Principle
The test uses anti-human CRP monoclonal antibodies conjugated with colloidal gold and anti-human CRP antibodies coated on the test strip.
When the sample is added, CRP in the specimen binds with the labeled antibodies forming antigen-antibody complexes. These complexes migrate along the membrane and are captured by the detection line.
The FIA8000 analyzer measures the signal intensity and calculates the CRP concentration in the sample.
