Getein HBsAg Fast Test Kit is suitable for blood supply screening and clinical diagnosis of hepatitis B virus infection.
Intended Use
The HBsAg Fast Test Kit (Immunofluorescence Assay) is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in serum or plasma samples.
About HBsAg
Hepatitis B is a liver infection caused by the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV). HBV is transmitted through exposure to infectious blood or body fluids, such as saliva or semen. Transmission modes include unprotected sexual activity, blood transfusion, mother-to-infant transmission, or consuming contaminated food.
The average incubation period for HBV infection is 6 to 8 weeks (ranging from 1 to 6 months). Common clinical symptoms include malaise, fever, gastroenteritis, and jaundice (icterus). In adults, 90% to 95% of those infected recover completely from acute illness and clear the virus. However, approximately 5% to 10% of patients with HBV become chronic carriers. HBsAg, a coat protein of hepatitis B virus, is composed of mixed polypeptides, containing lipids, sugars, and proteins. Although it is not infectious by itself, its presence indicates HBV infection. HBsAg can be detected in blood, saliva, milk, sweat, tears, nasopharyngeal secretions, semen, and vaginal secretions. Worldwide, over 300 million people are chronic carriers of the virus. HBsAg typically appears 1 to 2 weeks after HBV infection. Most acute hepatitis B patients turn negative in the early stages of the disease, while patients with chronic hepatitis B may remain HBsAg positive.
