INTENDED USE
The QuickVue One-Step hCG Urine test is a one-step immunoassay intended for the
qualitative detection of human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in urine for the early
detection of pregnancy. The test is intended for use by healthcare professionals.
SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a hormone produced by the placenta shortly after
implantation. Since hCG is present in the urine of pregnant women, it is an excellent
marker for confirming pregnancy.
PRINCIPLE OF THE TEST
The QuickVue test uses a monoclonal antibody specific to the beta subunit of hCG in a
single-step technology to accurately detect hCG.
Urine is added to the Sample Well on the Test Cassette. If hCG is present in the specimen
at a level of 25mIU/mL or greater, a pink-to-red Test (T) Line will appear along with a
blue procedural Control (C) Line in the Result Window. If hCG is present at lower levels,
or not present in the specimen, only a blue procedural Control Line will appear in the
Result Window.
