Chikungunya fever is a viral disease transmitted through the bite of Infected Acedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. Its Symptoms are a fever frequently accompanied by joint pain, muscle pain, headache, nausea, fatigue and rash. Angcard Chikungunya IgM is a chromatographic immunoassay kit for rapid and qualitative detection of chikungunya IgM antibodies in serum, plasma and whole blood from human. The nitrocellulose membrane of the test is immobilized with the recombinant chikungunya antigen. And also anti human IgM monoclonal antibody is conjugated to 40nm of colloidal gold particles. This conjugate is placed on polyester or glass pad as conjugated pad. When the sample is dropped into the sample wall on the device, the solubilized conjugate migrates with the sample by passive diffusion and both the conjugate and sample come into contact with the recombinant antigen that immobilized onto the nitrocellulose. If the sample contains IgM antibodies chikungunya, the result is visible within 10 minutes in the form of a red line that develops on the membrane. The solution continuous to migrate to encounter a control reagent that binds a control conjugate, thereby producing a second red line.
