Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) rapid test for the detection of liver, testicular or ovarian tumors

Elevated levels of AFP (alpha-fetoprotein) can be associated with a number of different conditions. It is important to note that a high AFP level is not specific, so it may be caused by several conditions. The Alpha-fetoprotein rapid test (whole blood/serum/plasma) can also serve as an aid in the diagnosis of various cancers and of liver, testicular and ovarian tumors. Some possible causes of an elevated level:

1. Pregnancy: During pregnancy, the AFP level rises naturally.
2. Genetic disorders: A high AFP level may occur in connection with genetic disorders such as Down syndrome or neural tube defects. In such genetic conditions, the AFP level may be higher than normal.
3. Liver diseases: In liver diseases such as liver cirrhosis or hepatitis, the AFP level may rise.
4. Liver tumors: AFP is a particularly important marker for the liver tumor known as hepatocellular carcinoma. Hepatocellular carcinoma is a type of liver cell cancer, and the AFP level may reflect the activity of the disease.
5. Teratomas: Teratomas are tumors that contain different types of tissue, and the AFP level may increase in the presence of this type of tumor.
6. Pancreatic cancer: Sometimes the AFP level may also increase in pancreatic cancer.

It is important to emphasize that a high AFP level is only one possible indicator, and further examinations and medical evaluation are required to confirm the diagnosis. The test kit can be ordered for professional use.

1. Remove the test from the sealed pouch and place it on a clean, level surface. Label the test with the patient or control ID. For best results, the assay should be performed within one hour after opening the pouch.

2.A Add 3 drops of whole blood/serum/plasma to the sample well (S) of the test cassette using the supplied disposable pipette, and start the timer.

Avoid trapping air bubbles in the sample well (S), and do not allow any solution to get onto the result area.

2.B Allow 3 drops of fingertip whole blood to drop into the sample well (S) of the test cassette, then start the timer.

Avoid trapping air bubbles in the sample well (S), and do not allow any solution to get onto the result area.

3. If the membrane has not started to wet after 1 minute, add 1 drop of buffer solution to the sample well (S).

4. Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. The result should be read after 10 minutes. After 20 minutes, the result is invalid.
