QuickChek™ ADV is a single-use, self-contained testing platform that likewise to the ELISA test, uses a recombinant (non-infectious) ADV-specific protein to detect ADV Antibody in Saliva or Blood (serum/plasma) specimens. The sample pad of the QuickChek POCT contains colored microparticles that bind to any ADV antibodies present in a sample to form a red-colored "conjugate" that moves through the QuickChek device by capillary action. A second protein material coated onto the device at the Test (T) area binds, or immobilizes any ADV-containing conjugate material as it passes through this part of the device to form a red line. At a second point further downstream from the test area is a Control (C) area that binds any red particles as they pass through. A red line in this area simply indicates that the test is functioning, and proper flow characteristics govern the results.

A red color at both the Test (T) and Control (C) areas indicates a positive result for ADV Antibody.

A red color at the Control (C) area, but not at the Test (T) area indicates a negative result for ADV Antibody.

Comparable sensitivity and specificity for the detection of ADV Antibody is provided by both the ADV Antibody ELISA test and QuickChek ADV.

Each test kit contains:

• Oral Fluid (Saliva) Collection Swab
• Plastic Tube with Collection Fluid
• Applicator Pipet
• QuickChek ADV device
• Directions for Use (including pictures demonstrating collection technique).

Note: Blood (serum/plasma) can also be used with QuickChek™ ADV and requires the use of an additional vial of fluid material. Contact info@avecon.com for details.
