Getein HCG+β Fast Test Kit is used as an aid in pregnancy test.
Intended Use
The HCG+β Fast Test Kit (Immunofluorescence Assay) is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in human serum or plasma samples.
About HCG+β
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a glycoprotein hormone produced by the placenta, a component of the fertilized egg, after conception. The biologically active hormone (intact HCG) is composed of noncovalently linked α and β subunits. The alpha subunit is similar to other hormones such as luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). The beta subunit, however, is unique to HCG and confers its biological and immunological specificity. During a normal pregnancy, HCG levels can be detected soon after conception, doubling approximately every 72 hours and reaching a peak in the first 8-11 weeks of pregnancy.

Clinical Applications
- HCG measurement in blood or urine can be used as an aid in pregnancy testing.
- Elevated HCG levels during pregnancy may indicate chorionic carcinoma, hydatidiform mole, or multiple pregnancy.
- HCG+β measurements, when used with other parameters during the second trimester of pregnancy, can help assess the risk of trisomy 21 (Down syndrome).
