At the beginning of 2024, Ringbio is pleased to announce the release of our second generation of ASFV Ag Rapid Test Kit, the African swine fever p30 antigen test kit. The new ASFV Ag Rapid Test Kit is also based on lateral flow immunoassay, which is a simple and fast method to detect the presence of ASFV antigen in serum plasma and whole blood samples.
Compared with the previous version of the ASFV Ag Rapid Test Kit, the current updated kit uses a pair of monoclonal antibodies against ASFV P30 protein, which is regarded as the most specific and sensitive marker of the early infection stage of the African swine fever virus. The kit also uses RDB specific antibodies to enhance the sensitivity and reduce the background interferences.
The kit has several advantages over other methods of ASFV detection, such as:
- It only takes 15 minutes to get a visible result, which is much faster than RT-PCR or ELISA.
- It does not require any special instrument or extra cost, which makes it suitable for lab tests and field tests.
- It does not contain any contagious materials, which makes it safe for human and animal handling.
- It has a high specificity and sensitivity, which means it can accurately identify infected pigs and avoid false negatives or positives.
Therefore, the Ringbio ASFV Ag Rapid Test Kit is a good product for detecting ASFV antigen in swine samples, as it is fast, simple, accurate, and safe.
