INTENDED USE
The reagent is used to detect the Hepatitis C Virus Antibody in serum / plasma / whole blood qualitatively. HCV is a single-stranded positive sense RNA virus, which belongs to the family of Flaviviridae. Hepatitis C caused by HCV is an infectious disease with liver as a target organ. The incubation period of hepatitis C virus infection was 2 to 26 weeks, most of the symptoms occurrs in 5 to 12 weeks after transfusion, on an average of 7.4 weeks.

Sample Requirement
1. The reagent can be used for the serum, plasma and whole blood samples.
2. A serum / plasma / whole blood sample must be collected in a clean and dry container. EDTA, sodium citrate, sodium oxalate, heparin can be used as the anticoagulants. Detect immediately after collecting blood. If blood coagulation occurs, serum sample is suggested to use. Use the fresh whole blood samples.
3. Samples may be stored at 2-8℃ for 1 week prior to assay, and at -20 ℃ for 2 years. Frozen refrigerated samples should be recovered to room temperature before detection and thoroughly mixed. Repeat freeze and thaw for no more than 3 times. Samples exhibiting visible precipitates, stink or muddy should not be used. Centrifuged, filtered, or allowed to settle to obtain a clear sample for testing.
