What are Hepatitis Test Kits?
Hepatitis Test Kits are medical diagnostic tools used to aid in the diagnosis of hepatitis infection. There are different types of hepatitis, including hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E, and each type requires a specific, specialized test kit. Hepatitis is liver inflammation that is commonly caused by a viral infection.
Hepatitis diagnostic test kits are designed to provide quick and accurate results. They can be used in many healthcare settings, including hospitals and clinics. The hepatitis screening testing kits are available as individual strips, cassettes, or as multi-panel cassettes. Each of the tests utilizes an immunochromatic assay, which is designed to provide quick and accurate results. They can be used in many healthcare settings, including hospitals and clinics.
The hepatitis screening and diagnostic test kits utilize rapid chromatographic immunoassays, which allow for the qualitative detection of the antigens or antibodies specific to the test type.
AdvaCare Pharma is the supplier of Hepatitis Test Kits, which are manufactured in ISO and CE-certified facilities in India, China, and the USA. Every facility is regularly inspected to ensure they are compliant with healthcare standards for quality and safety.

(HAV) Hepatitis A Antibody IgM Test Kit
(HAV) Hepatitis A Antibody IgM Test Kit is a qualitative diagnostic tool used to detect the presence of IgM antibodies. It is designed to be used with whole blood or serum/plasma specimen.
The HAV test kit is available as a strip or a cassette with a strip inside. The test strip is an immunoassay, which has reagents that are specific to hepatitis A virus IgM. Any antibodies present will bind and react, which will show a visible sign, which indicates a positive result.
(HBsAb) Hepatitis B Surface Antibody Test Kit
(HBsAb) Hepatitis B Surface Antibody Test Kit is a rapid qualitative test used to detect any present antibodies against the hepatitis B virus surface antigen. It is designed to be used with whole blood or serum/plasma specimen.
The HBsAb test kit is available as a strip or a cassette with a strip inside. The test strip is an immunoassay, which has reagents that are specific to hepatitis A virus IgM. Any antibodies present will bind and react, which will show a visible sign, which indicates a positive result.
(HBsAg) Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Test Kit
(HBsAg) Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Test Kit is a rapid qualitative assessment designed to detect hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) in whole blood or serum/plasma.
The HBsAg test kit is available as a strip or a cassette with a strip contained inside. The strip is a lateral flow immunoassay, which will show a visible signal if there is the presence of HBsAg.
(HBV) Hepatitis B Test Panel (5 in One) Kit
(HBV) Hepatitis B Test Panel (5 in One) Kit is a rapid qualitative assessment that combines five different tests into one comprehensive testing device. It is designed to be used with whole blood or serum/plasma specimen.
The multi-panel cassette includes testing strips for the HBV surface antigen (HBsAg), HBV surface antibody (anti-HBs), HBV core antibody total (anti-HBc), HBV core antibody IgM (IgM anti-HBc), and hepatitis B E antigen (HBeAg).
(HBC) Hepatitis C Antibody Test Kit
(HBC) Hepatitis C Antibody Test Kit is a qualitative diagnostic tool used to detect the presence of IgM antibodies specific to hepatitis C. It is designed to be used with whole blood or serum/plasma specimen.
The HBC test kit is available as a strip or a cassette with a strip inside. The test strip is an immunoassay, which has reagents that are specific to the hepatitis viral IgM. Any antibodies present will bind and react, which will show a visible sign, which indicates a positive result.
(HEV) Hepatitis E Antibody IgM Test Kit
(HEV) Hepatitis E Antibody IgM Test Kit is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay that can be used for qualitative assessment of the presence of Hepatitis E antibodies.
The HEV test is available as a strip or a cassette with a strip inside. The strip is able to detect anti-HEV IgM within the sample. It is designed to be used with whole blood or serum/plasma specimen.
Whole Blood
Whole Blood specimen is needed for this type of hepatitis test. Collect blood using standard venipuncture (2 drops) or fingerstick (50 μL) techniques. This specimen is transferred (after centrifugation, in the case of serum/plasma samples) with a capillary tube or dropper to the assigned area of the cassette, where a drop of the corresponding buffer dilution will be added immediately afterward to proceed with the test.
Serum/Plasma
Serum/Plasma specimen is needed for this type of hepatitis test. After centrifugation, serum or plasma is carefully transferred to the designated area of the cassette using a capillary tube or dropper. Subsequently, a drop of the appropriate buffer dilution is promptly added to the cassette, enabling the test to commence.
Proper handling and precise execution of the transfer and buffer addition steps are crucial for the successful completion of the test.
Cassette
Cassette is a box made of plastic, which has a test strip inside of it, a designated area for sample placement, and a window to view the results of the test.
The strip inside of the testing cassette utilizes an immunochromatographic assay, which will display the results as positive, negative, or invalid.
Strip
Strip is a thin piece of plastic containing reactive agents. Each strip features an area specific for sample application and an area in which the test results appear.
The strip features an immunochromatographic assay-based test, or a lateral flow assay, which is used for qualitative detection.
To use the strip, the arrow end of the strip should be dropped into the specimen sample into the arrow end of the strip. The test results will appear as positive, negative, or invalid.
Multi-Panel Cassette
Multi-Panel Cassette consists of a wider cassette that contains 5 test strips inside, one for each HBV marker (HBsAg, HBsAb, HBeAg, HBeAb, and HBcAb). It has different areas for sample placement and windows in which the lines will display as a positive, negative, or invalid test result for each one.

Uses
How should Hepatitis Test Kits be used?
The specific process will vary based on the exact hepatitis diagnosis testing kit being used.
How should the test kits be stored?
Any unused tests should be stored at room temperature in a dry location. They should be kept away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Do not use expired or damaged rapid testing kits.
After use, how should the Hepatitis Test Kits be disposed of?
Any used test components and samples should be discarded in regulation with local laws. It is recommended to dispose of them in a designated biohazard waste container.
FAQs
What is the difference between the Hepatitis Test Kits?
Different types of tests can be used to detect different components of the specified strain of the hepatitis virus.
The (HAV) hepatitis A antibody IgM test kit is designed to detect the presence of IgM antibodies due to the hepatitis A virus. These antibody testing kits can confirm an individual's immunity to the virus. They may also be used to check whether a vaccination was successful.
The (HBsAg) hepatitis B surface antigen test kit is designed to detect the hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg). Since it can detect the virus, it can be used to diagnose an acute or chronic infection.
The (HBV) hepatitis B test panel (5 in one) kit is a combination test that is able to detect the surface antigen (HBsAg) and any present antibodies (anti-HBs, anti-HBc, IgM anti-HBc). This offers a more comprehensive view of a patient's current state of infection.
The (HCV) hepatitis C antibody test kit is used to detect the presence of antibodies against the Hepatitis C virus, which can indicate a past or current Hepatitis C infection. Similarly, the (HEV) hepatitis E antibody IgM test kit can detect the presence of IgM antibodies associated with the hepatitis E virus. Its presence can indicate a recent or acute hepatitis E infection.
How long does it take to get the results?
The hepatitis rapid testing kits take about 15-20 minutes to show a result.
