| 20110003310 | ORAL FLUID RAPID IMMUNOCHROMATOGRAPHY TEST - The present invention relates to an oral fluid rapid immunochromatography test. More particularly, the present invention relates to an oral fluid collection swab separate from a lateral flow immunochromatography strip for detecting an analyte in oral fluid, consisting essentially of a sample pad, a conjugate pad, a test zone and control zone pad made of at least one matrix material, wherein the conjugate pad lies downstream of the sample pad, and is striped with a conjugate; the test and control zone pad lies downstream of the conjugate pad, wherein the test zone is immobilized with an specific binding reagent that specifically binding to the target analyte; and the control zone, downstream of the test zone, is immobilized with a second capture reagent. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the strip, a lateral flow immunochromatography method for detecting an analyte in oral fluid by using the strip, and kits containing the strip. | 01-06-2011 |
